2023 Wild Birds of New Zealand Calendar
I'm taking pre-orders for the "2023 Wild Birds of New Zealand" calendar now. Calendars available mid-October.
These are a large A3-size calendar, with cover printed on 300gsm gloss art board and the pages printed on 150gsm gloss art paper.
These are printed locally in Petone at Valley Print. The calendars are $28 each inclusive of GST, plus courier at cost. Courier (NZ Post) is usually $11.80 (a little less for Wellington, but whatever the cost it will be on your invoice), plus approximately $3 extra for RD, but you can get up to six calendars for the one shipping cost.
These are posted in archive envelops inside home compostable bio plastic courier bags from a New Zealand Company called R3 - this is included for free!
If you are in the Hutt, you are welcome to pick up from Woburn and save the courier cost. GST tax invoices available when calendars arrive back from the printers. Payment on invoice by deposit into my account when the calendars arrive back and are ready to ship, or cash on pick-up. Calendars should be ready to ship by mid October.
There is absolutely no problem if you pre-order and then change your mind before I ship them, as the extras I had printed sold out last year and several people missed out.
Thanks for supporting my venture. Message me or Email me on louise@louisethomas.co.nz if you would like a PDF of the whole calendar to have a look at before you order.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
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!
