Beside the Heathcote river, Cashmere, Christchurch, Sunday April 1, 2012, New Zealand on a wonderful warm sunny Autiumn day.
The Heathcote River (Māori: Ōpawaho) lies within the city boundaries of Christchurch, New Zealand, and is fed from springs near Templetons Road and also receives wet weather flows from as far west as Pound Road. It meanders around the base of the Port Hills from west to south-east.
Pre-European settlement and naming:
The original name of this river, Ō-pa-waho means 'The Place of the Outward Pā', or 'The Outpost' and refers to this pā being an outpost (Māori: waho) of Kaiapoi. The pā was built in a higher location just downstream of the present Opawa Road Bridge. It was a resting place for Ngāi Tahu travelling between Kaiapoi and Horomaka (Banks Peninsula). The surrounding area was an important mahinga kai, a source of plentiful food, especially tuere (blind eel) and kanakana (lamprey).
The river historically meandered through extensive wetlands prior to urbanisation. Historic survey maps from the mid-19th century (the so-called 'Black Maps') indicate that the habitat that the river passed through was abundant in flax (harakeke), toetoe, raupo, tutu and ferns and was dotted with ti kouka (cabbage tree).
The river corridor was low-lying and very wet. When the Waimakariri River rose and flowed across the plains, even higher ground was prone to flooding. Over many centuries of using the river as a food source and transport corridor, the iwi of Waitaha, Kāti Mamoe and Ngāi Tahu fostered a close relationship with this resource. The swamp forest around the river provided gathering grounds for water fowl and forest birds. Traps were regularly set for inanga (whitebait), pātiki (flounder), and tuna (eel).
The Heathcote River is named after Sir William Heathcote, secretary of the Canterbury Association.

Visitors Kibworth crowd the bat as they look to dismiss Rothley Park cheaply during the first innings of an important second-versus-first showdown in the Premier Division of the Leicestershire & Rutland Premier Cricket League. Note the colour of the parched pitch!
Kibworth won easily, by six wickets, to move 30 points clear of Rothley Park, with six rounds of the league season left. All over in three hours, 35 minutes. They didn't bother with a tea interval!

This flight out of Boston Logan airport is caught 'turning' away from the Sun after takeoff.
Taken with Samsung WB250F. Cropped in post processing to remove some of the 'negative space' in the original shot but to leave just enough for effect.
Stena Scotia heads along Dublin's south wall in the first blazing days of spring sunshine on her first trip to Holyhead, turning heads, thats an old sea dog of course.
My parents' cute and clever dog Tinka.
She will celebrate in the forest together with us and our dog Tessi, searching for the perfect Christmas tree ツ
I have more cute pictures of our dogs here:
Guillemots with their beautiful speckled blue egg. Just a thought:-
Chocolate brown like velvet
With a penguin silhouette
Fish caught lengthwise in its
Sharp and pointed bill like jet.
Blue eggs so close together
On a ledge they’re cheek by jowl.
With backs against the weather
They greet all with raucous growls.
Complex social living:
Threat, apology and fight,
Their numbers still increasing
Guillemots must have it right.
