Very busy night in the kōura stream. Five kōura in the torch spotlight at one time with one very territorial dude. Stunning green ones tonight amongst assorted beautiful brown ones. And...what I suspect is a very full tuna having a deep moe after kai hakari. Half in the water and half out. Never flinched with movement within a meter or the bright light on it. And a stunning wētā on the walk back home. First real autumn rain bringing life out. Even a few titiwai shining which is astounding.

More adventures at Mahuru Springs with ngā tuna ataahua. This big girl is a newbie who arrived today. She is far bigger than our mama or any previous visitor. Very gentle but also up for a game of tug-of-war, coming back for more every time.

Kākā pulling bark off the poplar trees to get at the sap with their brush tongues. Wonder if they will choose Kōwhai nectar if it were in abundance. Will have to wait and see. Currently the pūkeko are the biggest threat to our kōwhai saplings. They find them quickly and yank the guards off to get to the leaves and new growth. Little buggers!

Full moon and mist. Mid size tuna gracefully moving upstream under the inner gully low bridge and into its hidey hold. About the third time seeing them here over the past five years or so. Little kōura abundant in the stream and even one skittering away with the tuna coming past it. Very few titiwai gloworms (earthstars 😁) shining - prob as moon is so bright.
