Who's excited to go whale watching?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi Wellington,

Have you spotted a whale on your seaside walk? Because it looks like they're back! This time, a southern right whale and her calf have been spotted in the Wellington Harbour. Click here to read more!

DOC said it was the type of whale known to frequent beach areas and head into shallow water. But luckily, they don't strand.

Are you a fan of the whales visiting our city? And will you head down the harbour to see them? Share your thoughts in the replies! 🐳🐳

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

Merry Christmas -

I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.

Best wishes - Michael
