#Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand: Two black swans are coasting along on an inlet as the tide comes in. Four little grey cygnets bobbing on ripples behind them. Fluffy blue clouds overhead in a vast blue sky. Snow on the mountains beyond. A woman (20s?) is holding the door of a cosy local cafe open for five women (70s-80s?) who are all wearing colourful clothes and jewellery. Thanking her before heading to their regular table. Chattering like a small flock of raucous birds of paradise. Four women (20s-30s?) are walking along a footpath in a neat row, all pushing prams with tiny humans (1ish?) inside. Heading for a nearby park to set out picnic blankets and to enjoy some lunchtime friend time. A very tall and burly man (60s?) with a big bushy beard is walking into a still-winter-cold sea. He gets up to his knees and roars: "Woo!" Then gets to plum height and bellows: "GRAGH!" before finally diving in. Emerging from under a wave with a big leopard seal grin. A flock of sheep are dotted out on a green grassy hillside in a meandering valley. Woolly rocks soaking up the sunshine. Baaing back and forward as the mood strikes them. Any typos spotted in this post spent a delightful two hours driving out to their favourite steampunk cafe in a nearby country town today. If typos spotted, they'll be stopping off to go for a walk on the way home. It's that kind of spring day.
