They will need a large grassy area with a weatherproof hutch for day time. At night they will need an area inside so we can be with you, their family, and for days when it is just too awful to be outside."

I have the sweetest ducks ever, but I can't keep them any longer. Does anyone have a run or an orchard that might benefit from their ministrations? Their names are Elvis and Kuro!

"A few bird shots taken over the last couple of days! The tuis do feature very heavily in the shots, as they are such wonderful birds to capture, but I have also managed to find redpoles pecking on the grass at school and a lone Rosella! I also spotted a hedge sparrow peering out from the safe haven of a bush. The waxeyes were having a feast in the school compost bin.
Our resident gammy legged blackbird entertained me as he played with his food, a juicy fat worm, then he flew onto the fence to sing to me! He was with us this time last year and we were so thrilled that he came back again this year!"

I heard about a big fire in Carterton and found out it was in the corner of Holloway St. I saw footage on Facebook and it seems to have destroyed the Natures Fresh (if I recall the name correctly) as well as a number of adjacent shops!! Does anyone know the cause of it and where it came from?

Its late to plant Garlic but the first lot I planted havent grown. Though I bought NZ grown garlic from the suoermarket to plant I suspect they had been treated so they wouldnt sprout as they do with some potatoes.
I am happy to pay. I need about 6 cloves. Cellphone 0211340144.
