"Here's a twofer for my 2022 list. A pied stilt/poaka (Himantopus leucocephalus) and a South Island pied oystercatcher/tōrea (Haematopus finschi) keeping each other company at Sandfly Bay in Dunedin as the Sun goes down. … View more

Showing you don't even need to be the same species to get along - they remind me of me and my husband - he's the skinny one dozing off while I'm talking. Birds #27 and #28 for 2022."

Peter Neilson - former MP for Miramar

Chris from Hataitai

I was saddened to read of the death of Peter Neilson, a former MP for Miramar 1981-1990 (as the Rongotai electorate was known at the time).

Peter was a kind, caring and extremely clever man.

Gone too soon at just 67. Sincere condolences to his wife Megan and whānau. RIP, Peter.

This year's award-winning Wasp Wipeout campaign is now underway and once again we're appealing to anyone who wishes to get involved with the campaign by volunteering their time to help lay bait in wasp-ravaged areas.

If spare time is a rarity - not to worry! This year’s Givealittle page is now live and we’re aiming to fundraise $25,000 for the Tasman Environment Trust. All money raised will go towards the purchase of bait and bait stations to continue and expand wasp control operations.

Find out more about this destructive pest by reading through our new interactive feature on Stuff which explores the tools we have in the fight to rid wasps from New Zealand for good.
