Friday Feathered Friend
A first for Friday Feathered Friend - a pic of redpolls in Upper Hutt -courtesy of Rosa Marie.
"The great thing about going back to a favourite place is that you are always guaranteed to see something a bit different every time. I couldn't get enough of the redpolls that I happened to spot bathing at the water's edge near the playground. It was magical!
Unfortunately the ducklings had gone from at least about 30 to none at all yesterday so I think that the kāhu would have been working his way through them.
Plenty of yellowhammers and rosellas to be seen too! I loved seeing the Australian shovellers up at the Bridge by the Hobbit sign."
