Pick of the crop
It seems the animals and the weather dominate this week’s Pick of the Crop! A wood pigeon called in to Great Beginnings Gordonton to have a look around.
Wood pigeons are not all that common around Gordonton so this a good record! Look at these young ornithologists keeping watch –
Staying with things feathered, the Whitikahu/ Orini Ag Day is in their second year of holding a chicken competition. Here’s a star from last year –
Moving on to donkeys, meet Carnival, who lives in Puketaha. He keeps an eye on our new columnist, Mike Taylor, who keeps an eye on the rain. And there certainly has been a lot of it just recently!

There was a magnificent rainbow over Zealong Tea Estate –
And finally, finally, here is Marley the Number 8 Network office cat, showing everybody the best place to be in this weather. Next to our new wood burner. (I would like to point out that this is MY seat, by the way!)
