Camellia japonica from my garden are cojolled into place using this beautiful frog vase, all the more special as it was a gift from a lovely friend.

STARLING SCRAP
I was witness to a full-on Starling brawl. These guys were at it for a good 5 minutes. It ended rather abruptly when I turned up with my evidently scary looking camera!

ANGRY BIRDS
I counted 17 White Faced Heron all fishing in the same perfect piece of pond today. They had 200 sq km of Tauranga Harbour to choose from but still argued over the tastiest morsels.

My grandson had great fun in his gumboots on the mudflats turning every rock looking for crabs, but they were too quick for him and he never found one. I was excited to show him these photos - that there were indeed crabs and that the Kingfisher had caught one. He was not as impressed as I expected. Rather, he was upset for the crab that become lunch for the Kingfisher!
