Kauri snail / pupurangi. Huge and rare, such a privilege to see it. The body is blue.

Karekare beach, Waitākere Ranges, Auckland. North Island. New Zealand...

There is around 250 kilometers of bush, beach and wildlife to explore. I've been back in the country for over two months. The States can wait...

Weeding tradescantia from our native forest. It is highly invasive and stops the seedlings of native trees and plants from growing. #nativeforest #💚 @forestandbird.bsky.social @greenpeace.org.nz #savetheforests #weeding #newzealand #aotearoa #waitakereranges #tradescantia #nzbush #nznativeforest

If you’re weeding tradescantia from your property in the bush (by hand, no sprays) you are automatically my friend.

Another tough day working in the #Waitakere #Ranges, always beautiful scenery though in this part of #NewZealand. No phone signal all day, plenty of mosquito repellent and a sun hat #WaitakereRanges #Nature #Bush
