It is still summer here in Wellington, after a wet Saturday and a windy Sunday. The coast near Island Bay was pulling out all the stops this morning. Warm sun. Moderate breeze. A fine view of South Island - a rare thing indeed. You could, I think, see the entrance to one of the Sounds.
And the coast itself, with an impausibly blue sea, was dazzling anyone who was able to be there. Lovely nuclear family of Oystercatchers - mum, dad and 2 juveniles. The juveniles having a strangely hunched and elderly demeanour.
I have the house to myself for the first time - the troops are off doing their thing in Auckland. So just the Head of Security to feed and water and the tropical fish to tend to.
