photos from Taranaki

This beautiful magnolia is blooming in Hawera. It's another lovely bit if 
spring even though it's still winter!

The rest of these photos are from the archives.


As some of you know, Hubby likes to feed the eels in the Huatoki Stream.

He entertains the diners above the mural of eels.

A few New Plymouth sights

 These photos are a slice of New Plymouth, the largest city in Taranaki.

The murals are seen on the underpass walkway to the coastline.



One of the clever warnings on the electrical boxes.

A petrel among the gulls on a roof.

Hubby loves feeding his eely buddies.

While he was feeding the eels, a little girl pointed out the baby birds in a hole in the wall. 

They possible belong to these pigeons.

The walkway follows the Huatoki Stream to the sea. If you look closely, you can see
a white dot on a rock in the middle of the photo.

This is the dot! A crab hiding in a hole in the rock.

This was one of the awesome formations at Back Beach.

I really like this shot that I took through one of the openings.

Sadly, it wasn't long after the above photos that a storm destroyed them.
