HIKOI TO RAISE AWARENESS OF THE HOMELESS

Donna from Otaki District

The hikoi is still on so bring some wet weather gear, although it is supposed to clear up this afternoon. A bottle of water would also be good to go with the sausage sizzle. See you all there at the parking area behind the motel and across the road from the Beach Bakery & Cafe in McLean St, Paraparaumu at 1.30 where you can sign the petition if you have not had a chance to do yet. We will leave at about 2.00 pm

Mute Swan. 2017-1

Paul from Levin

Mute Swan. Note the interesting parallel, horizontal lines on the swan. I suspect they might be created by reflections from the ripples on the water surface. Please enlarge.
