Baby

Not sure if this is a Common Grass blue or a Southern Blue

Found him sitting in my kitchen sink sipping some dishwater out of a mug like he pays rent! He got relocated to a pile of branches outside.

Found in mixed broadleaf Podocarp forest on a standing dead tree.

I think. With some pelagic gooseneck barnacles on a washed up jandal (see separate obs). N winds. Moderate seas with big tides.

gulls recently taken to nesting on the old Miro and Rita

A striking yellow roof. Not a problem most of us have

Melanic form

One of those rare moments when a white heron decides to alight on the boardwalk next to you!

Empty cocoon and Pupal case

Green & Golden bell frog (Ranoidea aurea)

Unsure. All on a hydroid covered plastic chair that had washed in. Light SE winds, calm seas

In manuka-dominated broadleaved forest

The individual with the deformed tounge

Apparently breeding in the wild

Road verge in gravel, under light shade of row of Fagus sylvatica trees

Self-established from seed. Species ID unsure, but long flower stems match G. linearis.

Nothing much new on the beach. E to NE winds with calm seas
