    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

    A random snap the wife took with a new camera a couple of years back, just a well composed fluke that captures the moment.Name: tui 002.JPG Views: 329 Size: 3.49 MB

    I came across this photo today when I was looking through an old album. I believe it is the only photo of Moa bones found in the Tongariro region.

    Takahe, trail cam photo sent to me by my son, Takahe Ranger, Fiordland.
    He nui to ngaromanga, he iti to putanga.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Karearea. (falcon) Near Hyde, Central Otago
    It did have two legs - just not enough space on top of the waratah for it to put down two feet.

    Barn Owl. I believe they do exist in NZ but I've never seen one. This photo was taken in Queensland.

    Tui. A long wait for this hyperactive critter to sit still for long enough to trip the shutter.
