Last year, the death of an antelope at the zoo was attributed to stress from fireworks.

May pay to check the batch lots if you still have some of these cans in the pantry/cupboard.

We kick off with Josef Suk’s generously melodic serenade, which contains a capriciously dance-like second movement. Music Director Marc Taddei will, as ever, conduct our players through the performance, which includes Prokofiev's brilliant first piano concerto.
The concerto is performed by internationally celebrated pianist and cherished Wellingtonian Jian Liu, before we round off the evening with Rachmaninoff's beautiful third and final symphony.
Tickets start from $40, and the concert will take place at 7:30pm at the Michael Fowler Centre.

The monitoring is separate from The Great Kererū Count which is a nationwide citizen science project run by Urban Wildlife Trust & Kererū Discovery.
Despite kererū’s rising numbers, they are still under threat by mustelids and rodents – especially now that it is breeding season.
