Skylarking! 05.01.2020
05 years
I was walking in the long grass near house when I saw the sweetest thing! A Skylark nest!
Earlier I had watched a Skylark hovering, looking down at the same spot which made me curious, there were three little chicks in a tiny nest hidden in the grass, it was really hard to see, lucky I didn’t stand on them! Skylarks are quite common on the farm, they are not native but I like their songs, they fly so high in the air you can barely see them and they sing like the wild wind weaving through the fields.

Te Paki stream 02.01.2020.
05 years
We all squished in to our old wagon and off we set up TePaki stream, the stream was a bit tricky there were long stretches of really soft sand where we sank right in and the engine revved as we heaved along, then there were areas where there was deep water and as we chugged through I was sure water would come inside!
We arrived at a spot where we could go sandboarding and us girls ran to the top of the dunes and sped down really fast!
I came off my board at the bottom and had my skin sandpapered! It was great fun!
Then we went swimming in the lake at the top of the stream road, it was cold but it was nice to wash off all the sand!
