Kia hora te manno
Kia whakapapa paumamu te moana
Kia tere te Karohirohi

May the calm be widespread
May the sea glisten like the greenstone
And may the glimmer of summer dance across your pathways

This small orchid like flower, is one of many growing on a spike. The flowers, when fully open are about the size of a dime.

Barred owl

I photographed this barred owl at a friend's house. It was sitting patiently up in a tall tree waiting for lunch, which could be an unfortauate bird or squirrel visiting one of the bird feeders.
