    ✧ katipō ✧

    The katipō (Latrodectus katipo) is a species of cobweb spider found only in New Zealand.

  9. On Newβ€―Zealand’s South Island, rolling green hills and drifting clouds frame a quiet sheep pasture. Grazing flocks dot the slopes beneath lone trees, a timeless scene in a land where sheep still outnumber people. The air feels crisp, the pace unhurriedβ€”a snapshot of rural life at the edge of the world.

  10. It was a quiet and calm sunset. The colors were amazing, totally unexpected. Our house was in a middle of a field, so we could see all mountains around us. The pink sky behind this one was just astonishing.

  11. A stone church built in 1935, the Church of the Good Shepherd is one of New Zealand’s πŸ‡³πŸ‡Ώβ£ most photographed landmarksβ€”especially during lupine season when the lakeside bursts into a riot of purples and pinks. All set against the turquoise waters of Lake Tekapo and the Southern Alps.

  12. That Wanaka Tree... πŸ§˜πŸ”πŸŒŠβ£
    I was so lucky to see it before one of its branches was broken in March 2020. I hope it will grow back!

  13. A Kea comes into land on a snow-covered tree in Arthur’s Pass National Park. Native to us here in New Zealand’s South Island, Kea are the world’s only alpine parrotβ€”clever, curious, and full of mischief.

  14. Great spotted kiwi found far from home
    stuff.co.nz/nz-news/350254729/

    "The discovery of this #kiwi at the northern tip of the #SouthIsland is being hailed as remarkable, and a boost for local #PestEradication efforts... Once common in the area, there had been no sightings of kiwi in the hills behind #PΕ«ponga for decades... Finding it there raised not only the profile of the #conservation land, but a whole heap of questions: Where the kiwi may have come from, is it resident, has it walked a long way?"

  15. Meet Olive, she’s a Christchurch city stray cat and she’s in need of a home! Mural by SWIFTMANTIS in New Zealand

    Street Artist SWIFTMANTIS Mural by SWIFTMANTIS for FLARE Street Art Festival in Christchurch (Ōtautahi), South Island, New Zealand. More by SWIFTMANTIS on Street Art Utopia. Black cats have to deal with the superstitious stereotypes of being ”bad luck’ from too many witch movies SWIFTMANTIS: This is Olive! She’s a sweet little stray rescued by the Cats Protection League of Canterbury, and she needs a home! Usually the stray stories I paint have already found homes in interesting […]

  16. We drove home to Ōtautahi-Christchurch from Blackball yesterday afternoon and whoo-whee did the Southern Alps turn on the scenery.

    Too good not share. Here are some photos I took from our car as we drove. Full-res images are on Flickr.

  18. Trident Creek Falls. 2016
    On the track to Franz Joseph Glacier in NZ, it passes these waterfalls tumbling onto the bed of the Waiho River, some 35m below.
    On the way back to the car park, the sun came out and created the 'rainbow' in the spray.

  19. #NZ Part 2 was more mellow #tramping in the caples and greenstone valleys, with a little jaunt up into the #subalpine to get between them. #Christmas dinner of nice cheese at McKellar hut was a great way to spend the holiday! U shaped valleys, lots of birds, and ending every day with a swim were all highlights. #Aotearoa #southIsland
