Crake day
Normally I only find crakeless spots, but not on Sunday. Sunday was crake day. Not one, not two, not three, but four spotless crakes/pūweto (Porzana tabuensis) came out to feed in a pond at Pauatahanui. A new bird for my life list. These native fresh-water swamp birds are so secretive, that we don't actually know how many there are. It is thought they are declining though because of lack of wetlands.

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?
Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.
