| A delightful grove of Nikau palm trees that I stumbled into |
After a bit of inertia caused by feeling under the weather I headed back towards my recently discovered bait line on the Creek. I’m loving these bait and trap lines. The thought of photographing things with my macro lens helped to get me out of the house.

| Eyelash fungi. These are so small that I did not notice that the black rings were hairs until I got home and looked at my photos on my computer. |
I made this
hike into a loop and made it out just before dark. Covid restrictions have been eased and I can
now hike outside of my region. I see
some trips in my future.
I found a bunch of geocaches on the trap line and I will log them AFTER I log my upcoming 1,000th find.
It will soon
be fall mushroom season back home but I found some spring Hydnums here today.
I’m waiting
to find out if I can stay in New Zealand. There is more than one reason why I might not be able to stay here. One of the reasons is the severe housing crisis.

| Sadly this trap was my view at the best lunch spot I found at lunch time |

| This is where the fun and solitude start |

| Little Creek |

| Large liverwort or moss. I need to look for a costa (midrib) with my hand lens to know for sure |

| Gaint complex thallus liverwort Monocela forsteri. |
