Waikawa Beach spokesbird?

Russell Smith sent in this photo of our Waikawa Beach matuku moana or white-faced heron strolling across the footbridge.

If it’s the same bird, it’s been hanging round houses and people in Strathnaver, Emma Drive and other parts of our community.

If you see it, say Hi!

Thanks Russell! If you have a great photo of local wildlife, email the (best quality) photo to news@waikawabeach.org.nz with your name, where you took the photo and permission for us to publish it.
