Currently getting to the greenhouse is a bit of a nightmare as we run the gauntlet of kingfishers aggressively defending their nest site. Wow they're plucky little birds.
It's interesting going to other parts of the country and seeing cool birds that people who live there think of as boring and common. It sounds cool being attacked by kingfishers! I don't really see them where I live.
When I went down south last week, oyster catchers everywhere! So many!
When I go up to New Plymouth, mynas everywhere! (I know, invasive pest)
I think of NZ as being pretty much the same all over, but it's really not.
Indeed. I've lived in a few places in northern NZ and didn't realise there were places without tuis.
