    Went a bike ride from Park Island around top end of Ahuriri Lagoon onto express way. What a blast. Saw a spoonie feeding. The Godwits are back apparently. Must go and see them .They travel for 9/12 days non stop and lose half their body weight on the journey. An important feeding ground for them.That is why we need to protect our wetlands. China has destroyed a huge wetland in the pacific to make a man made airport. They say it has decimated half the migrating bird population. Sad.
