Toxic algae found in North Canterbury's Ashley River
One week since a warning was issued about toxic algae in Lake Pegasus, another North Canterbury site has the same problem.
The Canterbury District Health Board issued a health warning on Monday for the Ashley/Rakahuri River at the Rangiora-Loburn Bridge (also called the Cones Rd Bridge) after potentially toxic blue-green algae (benthic cyanobacteria) was found there.
People and animals, particularly dogs, should avoid the area until the health warning has been lifted.

very kind Lady behind me in the queue reached out and paid for my purchase.
The world still has some wonderful people in it even in these troubled times.
