Weka of the West
30 January 2008
Weka are famous for their greedy inquisitiveness, and these western sub-species are no exception. These ones at Tauranga were the first Sarah had managed to see, despite Pip's sightings at Rapahoe and Ross
From Tauranga we visited another abandoned gold settlement at Lyell, in the Upper Buller Gorge. A truly difficult creek to reach and a site well infested by midges drove us away. We'd hoped to find a nice roadside free camp, but failed till we reached Reefton.
