Lake Tutira

After 5 days in Napier (1 walk, 2 bike rides, 1 winery, 1 pub lunch some cafes)we moved to Lake Tutira on the road to Wairoa... 

...where we did a 2 hour loop walk in the Boundary Stream reserve.  This is an 800 year-old matai

on one of the ridges

lunch overlooking a deep ravine at the top of a cliff

lots of gnarly old trees in the bush, also lots of cicadas shedding their skins but not so many birds (robin, tomtit, tui) looked for kakako and kea but didn't see/hear any.  A good walk though - we also did a 40 min loop near the road which had lots of signs telling us what the plants are.
