A beautiful day for oystercatchers
It’s a beautiful day. The sediment from the rivers stirred up from the recent rain has settled and the water is not so brown and angry-looking. Petone beach is littered with driftwood debris and colourful interesting natural flotsam pulled from the seafloor by the ripping tides. The variable oystercatchers/tōrea pango (Haematopus unicolor) are having a field day, dining on tuatua and whelks washed ashore by the large swells we’ve had. It feels pretty warm, I've taken my cardy off. I'm ready for work now. How could I possibly be grumpy today?

Stamps wanted
I run a Stamp club at Tawa School to encourage children to collect stamps and learn about countries, history and more. Unfortunately new stamps aren't often seen these days as it's all electronic! If you have any stamps or old collections sitting around, let me know and I'll come and get them.
