"The variety of plumage at the moment on young birds as they transition into their adult feathers is amazing. I think a few years ago I would have thought of starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) as a dozen different species if I thought of them at all.

Mature feathers coming in on their backs are beautiful, with pale brown borders and the middles an iridescent green in the sunlight. Nature is an artist."

Mayor K Gurunathan say there’s a lot to consider, from managing growth, to our COVID-19 response and recovery, to housing, through to responding to climate change. We’re dealing with some complex issues, so we need a bold plan to secure our future.
“We’re proposing an ambitious Capital Works programme to deliver projects that support recovery and provide the infrastructure renewals and upgrades we need to maintain core services and prepare for our district’s expected growth."
The council is proposing an average rates increase of 7.8 per cent.
