Orca search continues
The search for a baby orca’s pod enters its fourth day, and volunteers and professionals continue to work around the clock to look after the stranded calf.
The juvenile orca became stranded near Plimmerton, north of Wellington, on Sunday, and since then he has captured the nation’s hearts, with hundreds heading out in the biting wind to catch a glimpse of the aptly-named Toa (brave).
If anyone spots an orca pod, they are asked to take note of location and direction of travel, to take pictures, and to call 0800 DOC HOT. If possible, people are asked to stay with the pod, while keeping a safe distance.

And yet I am the confidence of all
To live and breathe on this terrestrial ball.
