The total number of stalls was lower than in recent years, but the quality certainly made up for that, and those food stalls that were there all had long queues! As usual, we have had many complimentary comments about how our Karnival is such a great community event!

"This is not the best photo of a variable oystercatcher - it's not even the best photo I took that day, but it is interesting. I noticed he/she was tagged - meet CT7. I snapped him/her in the Hutt Estuary on 12 January and sent a report off to the Banding Office as you do and got back a very interesting report about the bird.
He/she was banded on Bell Island, Waimea Inlet, Tasman on 28/05/2022 in his/her 2nd year. Sex is unknown. CT7 is a busy chap, since banding this bird has been re-sighted at Saxton Field, Stoke, Nelson on 28/06/2022 and 19/07/2022. This bird is part of a research study on the morphometrics, population trends, longevity and movements of variable oystercatchers in the Golden/Tasman Bays region.
So, if you see CT7 don't forget to report him/her to the banding office.
Variable oystercatcher/ tōrea (Haematopus unicolor). Bird #14 in 2023.

This large chest of drawers was bought in Singapore some years ago - from a high end store. It is very heavy (perhaps teak?) and needs a little work on the drawer runners as one or two of the drawers are not sliding in completely - but I suspect this may be a pretty simple fix.
