It was a beautiful spring day...

The blue balloon was stretched tight over The Riverbank today. Warm and sunny. The Clematis we planted from seed is in full bloom climbing over a manuka by the garden.

Also today we completed the installation of a seat and leaner that overlooks part of the garden and our wetland and boardwalk. From here we can hear Spotless Crake and the Fernbirds calling in the wetland and watch Piwakawaka flitting amongst the fruit trees. It's a nice sunny place for an evening drink and nibbles.

Col the Kiwi revisited the hole in the bush several times this week. Here is one of its visits on the 9th. It looks like it can no longer fit into the hole!
