Along the harbourside
A pandora’s box of bird sounds from Careys Bay to Aramoana. It opens with part of a track by Fatcat & Fishface from Bird Brain – a tribute to the greatest singers in New Zealand … our native birds. Click on the image below to hear the podcast.
The journey starts with the dawn chorus at Boiler Point and ends with the royal albatross at Tairoa Head. Along the way are birds of the bush – tui and bellbird, the sound of a creek and the sound of the sea.
Penguin Place
A private reserve dedicated to the conservation of the hoiho, the yellow-eyed penguin.
