Winter Woolly Bird Count 2022
The Winter Woolly Bird Count 2022 is on this Saturday from 10am-4pm!
Don your winter woollies, grab your binoculars, and invite your friends and family for an afternoon of scavenger hunting to find lots of unique yarn birds, created by Wonky Stitches NZ, hidden all around the Lower Hutt city centre! Donβt forget to register your participation at Wonky Stitches NZ and you can pick up a copy of the map at the War Memorial Library on Saturday!
There will also be a Crochet Workshop running during the Bird Count at War Memorial Library with a koha donation entry. The proceeds from this will be going to Wellington Harbour Little Blue Penguin Study (Penguin People). This event is sponsored by About Space Hutt City, a programme that places active and creative projects in vacant spaces, to add vibrancy to the city.

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?
