    Wekas, wekas, wekas!!!!!!
    Crazy stuff. Iv not seen a NI weka ever. I thought they were confirned to isolated pockets around Gisborne but traveling to Opotiki this weekend we saw heaps of them. All the way from Waimana to the coast. So cool. Couldn't get a chance for a photo.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
