A glorious sight - a kākā feasting on ngutukākā
Photographed in my Ngaio garden, this local kākā stretches to reach delicious white ngutukākā (kākābeak) flowers. The white form of the kākābeak is even rarer in the wild than the kākā parrot. To have both in the middle of suburban Welly is such a treat! Do you have kākā in your garden too?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
