Wildlife
Posted in Life in NZ on 01/21/2006 01:20 am by TamStephen points out that there’s not many places in the world where you might see a PENGUIN on your way to work, so I ought to put it on the blog. It was a little blue one, paddling around near where they park the Lady Elizabeth III (that’s the Police boat). There’s a stingray that’s been hanging around the lagoon, too, which I thought was cool.
Stephen came into work with me today, to give a talk to, I think, the Ministry of Science about how to attract more scientists to New Zealand. I think it boils down to “offer them jobs where they can do science instead of begging for money all the time.”
