    What a clever dog, bet it wasn't easy to train to fetch like that.

    I have a few birds that come and go every so often
    they never bother me and I leave them alone

    However, my wee buddy...
    he went zoomies every time he sees them and nothing stops him.

    the lads went for bit of a paddle yesterday and tagged up a deserted maimai on wainono...deserted by all but the birds,its coated in shag shit.... plan B incase lake opuha stays toxic again.
    really cool to be able to hand of responsibility to others in the crew after 25 years of being the one who does all the preseason running around.
    hope to zoom up to opuha and tag my normal spot and say hello to my buried dog this weekend,maybe...

    Made some new wings out of ice cream container lids as the originals blew off and sunk at the pond.
