Spring cleaning
SOUTHLAND BRANCH members turned out in force during October for the annual track and lodge maintenance weekend at Tautuku on the Catlins Coast. Cold southerly rain on Saturday did not deter a keen group from clearing the walking track through the adjoining Lenz Reserve, although the task of spring cleaning the lodge was greeted with greater enthusiasm. Sunday morning dawned with snow on the ground (at sea level!) but cleared enough to make the final track clearing a sunny and social occasion. And all were finally rewarded by the song of the first shining cuckoo of the season.
