Bring your own lunch for Saturday and &lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt; Sunday, Saturday night is potluck dinner.&lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt;&lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt; During the day you will probably see takahe, kakariki, robins, pukekos, &lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt; shore plover, skinks, geckos and giant weta.&lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt;&lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt; If you can't come in April I am always looking for more volunteers, I run &lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt; trips once a month.&lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt;&lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt; If you are interested and want to know more send email to or ring evenings &lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt; 938 5102. &amp;lt;mailto:juliawhite@paradise.net.nz&amp;gt;juliawhite@paradise.net.nz&lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt;&lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; &amp;gt; Julia White&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
