A photographer crouching down to take a picture. <br />An assortment of clothes hanging on a nearby tree branch. <br />A small human (5?) on a bike stopping to see what this is all about. </p><p>A woman (40s?) is coasting down a hill on a sunny yellow pushbike. <br />Legs out to the side. <br />A straw hat fastened securely on long hair. A the long skirt of her green dress bunched up in her lap. </p><p>A tiny human (1?) has just spotted not one, but TWO trucks full of bright red apples passing her on the road. With great purpose she points at the apple trucks, then looks at everyone waiting at the lights around her. <br />This is something that MUST be noticed!</p><p>A weka* is circling around a picnic table. A tiny dog (teacup mousehound?) is sitting in a basket and Weka is increasingly curious. Is this thing a sandwich?<br />Could it maybe... steal it? <br />BUT WHAT IS THIS?!<br />It barks?<br />Hmm. Nope. Maybe it'll go inspect the barbeque instead. </p><p>(Continued Below)</p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/67d2b47f-b7e6-4015-93d0-b71deab57ca1/spotted-while-roaming-in-aotearoa-new-zealand</link><generator>RSS for Node</generator><lastBuildDate>Fri, 15 May 2026 06:04:43 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/67d2b47f-b7e6-4015-93d0-b71deab57ca1.rss" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><pubDate>Thu, 30 Apr 2026 20:05:30 GMT</pubDate><ttl>60</ttl><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to #Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand: on Thu, 30 Apr 2026 20:05:40 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Any typos spotted in this post had a delightful moment yesterday running into their favourite local drag queen (out of drag) in their pharmacy. If typos spotted, they'll be in the vitamin aisle, howling with laughter as they hear a new, completely bonkers drag name. </p><p>*Wekas are a very very sneaky brown wood hen. Part dinosaur (mighty legs) part kleptomaniac, all awesome. They are rather loved and will definitely take your sandwich if you're not looking. </p><p>*Feijoas might not be an indigenous New Zealand fruit, but they're everywhere and characterise Autumn. People give them away and still have too many!</p><p>*Gumboots are rubber boots or wellies.</p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://sunny.garden/users/georgepenney/statuses/116495452756326629</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://sunny.garden/users/georgepenney/statuses/116495452756326629</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[georgepenney@sunny.garden]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 30 Apr 2026 20:05:40 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
