Beautiful morning to welcome 25 kiwinui (NI Brown Kiwi) to Pōneke at Pipitea Marae. Ngāti Korokii Kahukura gifted the birds from @Maungatautari1 to Taranaki Whanui and Ngati Toa Rangatira for release in the wilds by The Capital Kiwi Project team today. Awesome stuff!

Every time I look at this photo I think about how this moment before the crux must have been so much worse than actually climbing through it. @AlexHonnold chalking up... 2,000 feet up El Cap without a rope, contemplating the shitty holds on the Boulder Problem.

If you ever wonder if your resident meteorologists are passionate about weather and get excited like kids for the 1st snowfall…wonder no more! Check out this completely unscripted scene this afternoon @nwsanchorage when the first flakes started flying. #akwx #nerds

Here’s a current (Ribes spp.) buried beneath the ostrich ferns in my back yard. Today (September 17, 2022) I trimmed back the ferns and provided the shrub a ‘moment in the sun‘.

This storm is so big it will take about 3 hours for the sun to fully set on it.
