On the last day of winter, my true love gave to me

......a waxeye in a kowhai tree.

Truly glorious day to celebrate the last day of winter with.  It really does feel like spring has come a few weeks early this year.

In COVID news, there were 4 new border/quarantine cases and 5 new community cases, though 15 new recoveries are tipping the balance favourably so the active case total drops to 131.
