Milford Sound / Piopiotahi is one of roughly 90 places to have been given a dual name as part of a 1998 Treaty of Waitangi settlement with Ngāi Tahu, recognizing the significance of the fiord to both Māori and Pākehā New Zealanders. This name consists of both the Māori name and the former European name used together as a single name, instead of as interchangeable alternate names.
In te reo Māori, the fiord is known as Piopiotahi after the now extinct piopio, a thrush-like bird that used to inhabit New Zealand. According to the Māori legend of Māui trying to win immortality for mankind, a single piopio flew to the fiord in mourning following Māui's death. The name Piopiotahi refers to this bird, with tahi meaning 'one' in Māori. The fiord was given its European name in 1823, when the sealer John Grono named it Milford Sound after Milford Haven in his birthplace of Wales. The Cleddau River, which flows into the fiord, was also named for its Welsh namesake. (Wikipedia)
Part of a hilltop sculpture near Burnley called the Singing Ringing Tree. It is made of many metal tubes in a twisting formation which was designed to harness the elements to create very unusual and eerie sounds as the wind flows through. Worth visiting. This is part of a selection of sculptures around East Lancashire, all with a different design.

Milford Sound is truly an epic location. The skies were grey and moody with frequent showers when I visited, which made for some atmpspheric images.
This was from our first trip to Milford Sound when it was cloudy so we could only see a short way up the mountains surrounding the fiord. This waterfall was still impressive even though we went during a drought!

In Arizona, I am always drawn toward the Sound of Water. Today I was rewarded near Lynx Lake in Prescott.
After we left Picton on the road around the Sounds on the way to Havelock, the sun was shinning and it was really warm. On our trip up the South Island of New Zealand April 2019.
With 150km of New Zealand's coastline, Marlborough Sounds is a collection of ancient sunken river valleys filled with the waters of the Pacific Ocean. Forested hills rise steeply from the sea around an intricate coastline of sheltered inlets and sandy bays. The area has three main bodies of water - Queen Charlotte, Kenepuru and Pelorus Sounds. The Department of Conservation manages over 50 reserves in this scenic playground.

I saw the film today. It's an excellent, highly well crafted film that holds your attention all the way through. It is one of the very best movies that I've seen in a long time, and what a powerful message it sends about child abuse. I heard that some people are criticizing the film. Anyone who criticizes this movie either doesn't have a heart or supports pedophilia.
