Introducing 'Peep' to our local Silverstream community! 🦆

One of our wonderful residents, Dietrich, rescued Peep who was one of 12 ducklings hatched by one of the white ducks in early November 2020. He is now the only survivor from that clutch.

Dietrich looked after Peep for 10 weeks and he was recently released back to the other ducks! Peep is recognisable by a purple leg band on his right leg. Have you seen him yet? ✨

Hi there,
Canterbury has been named the fifth most welcoming region in the world in the Booking.com Traveller Review Awards, while Oamaru, Hokitika and Invercargill have been named the most welcoming towns in NZ. They were followed by Cambridge, Picton, Lake Tekapo, Kerikeri, Palmerston North, Paihia and Twizel.
We'd be really keen to hear your thoughts on this based on your own travels around New Zealand. Do you think Canterbury is NZ's most welcoming region? And are these our most welcoming towns?
Where in NZ have you been made to feel particularly welcome on your travels?
As usual, please put 'NFP' in your comment if you don't want it to be included in an article. Cheers.
