Miramar peninsular was once deviod of these lovely birds. Not now. The possum eradication program had been an astounding success and there are now loads of Tuis. I’ve started planting trees to attract them. Useful link here.

Getstaffed – in the Hutt we hear moreporks now as well. Very eiry at night during winter. They don’t half make a racket as they call to themselves. I love it.

How many trees can people who are forced to live in high density apartments under your Commie plans for society, plant and tend? How many vege gardens can they have? How many solar panels and wind turbines can they mount?

Whose ideal is high-density apartment living?

“Speaking of tree chopping… what’s the latest from Victoria in that regard?

Will home owners there to able to clear trees from around their homes – like the couple that did so, were prosecuted, convicted, fined and now have no living neighbours?”

The two people who gave you negative karma points, getstaffed, are lowlife pond scum. You are absolutely right.

The computer you type your messages on, the clothes you wear, the food you eat and the car you drive was not produced by somebody sacrificing for the greater good.

One of the biggest beneficiaries of this has been the tui, whose resurgence in urban areas has been remarkable.

Tui is good beer.

By New Zealand standards it is anyway.

I’ve ‘trimmed’ a couple of natives off my property over the years

But even if it does go into law, most people are so used to council watch dogs it will probably take 5 years for it to sink in

By that time the law could be reverted again. Esp under new councils.

Besides, is this a national thing or just local.

Are natives even allowed to be trimmed on properties

The lady in Akld has been pruning trees for years for their benefit when the facist council moved to stop her with threats to her freedom.

so we’re supposed to be excited about this.

No council anywhere is going to blow a trumpet about it.
