Update - Missing Lovebird - found as an agenl bird

Kyoko from Karori

I had two phone calls today to let me know that she was seen on the Makara Peak track, hopping on the Council worker's bicycle tyre at lunchtime, so I went to look for her, but she was not found. I came home and made more flyers and distributed them around the location where she was seen. Then I had a second phone call to tell me that she was found, but sadly, she was an angel at 7 pm. I had never thought that she could come back home. I did not give up on finding her because everybody's support from the community kept me going. She is now at home, sleeping in her hammock in her cage as she used to do instead of sleeping in the cold forest. Thank you so much for your care and support. She loved flying. Now she can fly high up in the sky to go over the rainbow.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
