Fine fat Northland sea slug.

Lying on the floor, recovering from culling the bookshelf, I saw this out the window – never seen a sun halo rainbow before!

a sun halo
That's a fine 22-degree halo! Caused by the glints of millions of ice crystals in upper-level clouds, 22-degree haloes are not uncommon, but we tend not to see them because we don't look at the part of the sky near the sun. More information here . Yours is unusually colourful!

Big tide in the harbour yesterday morning, and a stiff northwesterly = surf at the Chev! A little while before this, waves were breaking over the seawall.

Perfectly good day at the beach, and all these joggers went and spoiled it. :-)

The beaches on Rangitoto are crazy. Mangrove and tussock.

I wish I'd had time to swim in this gorgeous pool. But I was afraid I'd miss the ferry. :-)

As shipwrecks go, it was a fairly benign one

I think that's a glasswort . Native which grows more typically in salt meadows.

A salt meadow on an estuary near Dunedin. As I recall there were glassworts here but I don’t seem to have any closeups. Quite a number of salt-meadow specialised species in this photo.

At the edges of the meadow which are wetter, the plants thin out. The pine needle in the second one gives scale.

Beyond the salt meadow, the tannin-laden water flows to meet the sea.
