Smouldering rubbish dumped on Sandringham Rd, Kingsland, after truck fire

Brian from Mount Roskill

A Fire and Emergency shift manager said they were called to Sandringham Rd, Kingsland, just before 5.30am.
He said one truck and crew were sent to the scene, and they left just after 6am.
Photos from the scene show a large pile of rubbish dumped off to the side of the road along the outside of Eden Park.
He also said incidents like this “were not very common” and it is unknown at this stage what caught fire inside the truck.
The manager said the driver followed “standard procedure” by dumping the load on to the roadside.

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!
