"Believe me, madam, I am just as surprised to see you, but don't have the same feelings of delight. You will forgive me if I now turn and run screaming into the bushes. Common pheasant/ring-necked pheasant (Phasianus colchicus) - a very brief surprise encounter yesterday on the path beside the Waimanu Lagoon in Waikanae. Bird #72 in 2022."

Mute swan (Cygnus olor) at Henley Lake in Masterton - nobody has written a poem about this guy. Interesting aside - I read "Stop all the Clocks" at my father's funeral many years ago, it is still one of my favourites. Knowledge of swans aside, Auden was a genius. Bird #78 in 2022."

CAFE WITH NO COFFEE

Michael from Trentham

Dough Bakery Cafe in Expressions/Whirinaki in Upper Hutt turns off its coffee machine at 2.30pm - at least in the weekends.
So bowled up to the cafe at 2.40pm today with three others and was bowled over with a pancake when was told that coffee is off the menu but we could have everything else.

What good is a cafe that does not serve coffee? And especially so within the greater Wellington region where cafe coffee is considered world class.
So bought some cakes/cakey doughnuts to take home for afternoon tea. But afternoon tea at Dough Bakery is off the radar for us in future.

SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Peach

Although we have featured Peach before, she is struggling to find a new home.
"Although I didn't look my best when I first arrived at SPCA, it didn't take long for me to settle in and start looking healthier and happier. I charm most people I meet, and have lots of love to give. I can be a bit over the top when first meeting other dogs, but have gotten to make some friends and get to win them over with my exuberant greetings. If I were to go home to another dog, it would need to be one who is social and still eager to share playtime with me as an older dog may get annoyed with me. I am better suited to medium to large male dogs so this is my preference for a home. When it comes to training I come across very goofy at first, but am very motivated by treats and have started to pick up training easily. I'd like to continue training in my new home and show you what I'm capable of achieving. Although I can be full of beans at times, I really do love a good cuddle and chill out time with my humans, and once I have a good routine I am sure to flourish in my new home. I am so full of character and bound to provide you with lots of laughs. History of my previous homes is unknown, and for this reason combined with my personality, the team is looking for a home for me with confident children over 10 years or adults. I am looking for a home without cats."
