    • Karearea for Bird of the Year!
      • 17 Sep 2009
      • The Wellingtonista

Between the Sanctuary; the council's efforts in keeping pest numbers low; and the natural attractions of our location, Wellington is party central for birds. And so it is only fitting that the Wellingtonista takes at least a passing interest in Forest & Bird's Bird of the Year Poll, given that some of our favourite residents are top candidates!
