Toxic algae blooms and elevated levels of E. Coli are prompting warnings from Land Air Water Aotearoa (LAWA), which provides updates on 125 spots in the Wellington region.
On Tuesday morning, according to LAWA, 16 of 20 popular river spots in the region were unsuitable for swimming, and caution was advised for the remaining four due to large amounts of E. Coli bacteria and toxic algae blooms.
Toxic algae and E. Coli both cause gastrointestinal illness and infections, with symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.

The great kiwi deck, every home should have one. But there's a decking debate raging in DIY and Reno circles: Should the grooves go up or down?
We think we've settled the argument here.
Two people have died and two are seriously injured after a car went the wrong way down Wellington Urban Motorway early Tuesday morning.

They are often hard to spot but are one of the most beautiful birds you will see.
"Sacred kingfishers/kōtare (Todiramphus sanctus) seem special to me. A lightning flash of brilliant blue as they nip down from the power lines over the river or one of the posts they like to perch on to snatch a crab or little fish – the strike operation takes only seconds, barely breaking the water. I’ve almost given up trying to catch one on my camera diving. They are ruthless with their food, smashing in on their post, presumably to kill it, before swallowing it whole. I haven’t seen him for a few months, but I had one who liked to visit the garden off and on. He was a loveable, if badly behaved, guest, throwing up indigestible crab bits and staking out the compost bin where a mouse lives – he used to watch it with such intensity, like he was trying to use his mind meld powers to make the mouse run out. Come to think of it, I haven't seen the mouse for awhile either. Hmmm. Here is a young chap (an immature) with his chest still mottled from Pauatahanui the other day."
Gathering together during the holidays can lead us to notice changes in our loved ones and their needs, especially if there has been some time between visits.

Starting a conversation about care isn’t always easy but like many things, sometimes you just need to take the first step.
To help nurture those conversations, we invite you to our Care Centre Open Days at your local Ryman village. A tour will give you first-hand experience of our village communities and the exceptional care we provide. Care options include the extra support of a serviced apartment, resthome, hospital and specialist dementia care.

Covid-19 tracer app.
New Zealand is still exposed to the new, more contagious, strains of Covid-19 despite the Government recently bolstering its border and pre-departure defences.
The number of daily Covid-19 tracer app scans has dropped from one million a day, at its height, to the current low of 300,000.
That means that if the more contagious variants get into the community, it will be hard to trace contacts.
Are you scanning? If not why not?
If you do not want your comments used by Stuff please put NFP.
Do you have a doggo/kurī? Then we want to hear from you!
We're asking local dog owners to take this short survey to help us better understand how Wellingtonians use our dog services and how they could be improved.
It only takes 5 minutes to complete! Just head to: ap1se.voxco.com...
