Series 6 - iii

Matiatia, Waiheke Island

You can just see this house in the first photo on the top of the hill on the right.
Sorry, this is the closest I could get with my lens -
but I was pleased to see the 2 LARGE man-made Kiwi birds on the computer when I downloaded it on my PC.
NZers are named after the Kiwi bird -
they are flightless,
sleep all day,
scratch around for bugs in the bush to eat,
and have long beaks... !!!!!!!!

Canon EOS 50D ,Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM

The sculptures make a simple statement...I see the owner tending his garden too. It's a lovely place.

Such a wonderful home with an incredible view! :)

Beautiful residence and I like those Kiwis :)

The birds you can see are large man-made Kiwis - NZ's native bird.
NZers are often called Kiwis...
