Sunday on Mana

We thought we lost Brodie this morning. Me and my Mum looked everywhere. We found Brodie in the garden eating peas. It was so funny.

This is a juvenile shag. That means he is a kid like us. Shags dive for their food. They roost on the big old macrocarpa tree by our beach.

It was so hot on the beach today. We had to come back inside because I was too hot. Brodie chased me down the beach with a dead seagull. It was so funny.

We have so many paua shells on our beach. I collect them. I like to paint them for my garden.

These are my seedlings for my garden. I have a children's garden. My mum helps me with it.

This is my Mum sneaking on my Dad's work computer. She is helping me write this.

Was it really hot at your house today? I am going up the hill with my Dad now to check on the Takahe that he is going to catch in pens. I am going for a swim when we get back .We have eagle rays in our water.

  1. Dear finn, eagle rays sound so cool! How big are they? Do they come very close when you are swimming?
