State of Emergency in Christchurch

What next? We've done it with earthquakes, fires & now flooding! Pestilence?
Plenty of rain, strong gusts during the night, and generally wintery. I decided to leave the beach well alone!
It was absolutely bucketing down when I grabbed this shot.

Thanks so much for your fantastic feedback for yesterday's kingfisher. I was so excited to capture it, and I'm thrilled you caught that excitement too.
