Pictures Holiday snaps

[LunaLovebird]

I mentioned in another thread that I am in the middle of an extended break in New Zealand and France. Thought I'd share some (a lot) of my photos from my first leg in NZ.

Coromandel coast:
























(Variable oystercatchers)




Happy that I conquered these:



Taupo:



A confused pheasant walking in Craters of the Moon, which is a geothermal area. Those puffs of smoke is actually steam coming out of the ground.





Wellington / Wairarapa:









I went to a bird sanctuary / conservation forest here also, but those photos are for another thread.

Thanks all!

Only half a week left of my France leg. It's going to be weird going from frost and snow to the sweltering heat and humidity of the sub tropics.

Hi Luna, Thanks so much for sharing...I needed a quiet get away for a few minutes, now I feel better.
