very nice pics.. love the quail and wood pigeon.I seen a wood pigeon sitting about 4 feet away. Its amazing that thing can even fly its so huge! Ive not seen any Karori park yet but the quail with the babys walk right between my legs. No fear. The shots of the buildings are great. What is that gray stone building? where is that waterfall? NZ seems to have lots of marshmallow farms.
The Stone Store, I think it's called. Built in Kerikeri, 190 years is apparently enough that it's the oldest stone building in the country. The waterfall is just upstream of it. One of the rivers that flooded a few years ago. http://maps.google.com/?ll=-35.217847,173.962712&spn=0.004352,0.008256&t=h&z=18 The road across the mouth of that river has washed away, and a higher footbridge has been built a little further upstream.
New Zealand looks so surreal... Wish I was there sometimes. I dated a chick from there, she was pretty awesome!
