Saw 1 young Billy goat on the inland track. We were standing next to the ATBS trap #25 when we saw it. It heard us & came towards us. Then lead us up the track for about 15 minutes stopping to wait for us to see him then would go further up the track then it disappeared. Did not see him on the way back down from holyoake clearing.
I saw dog prints off the leash on the beach between arawoa hut and awaroa lodge. In front of the batches. I would imagine dogs off the leash are not allowed around all the oyster catchers?
We saw a dead blue penguin on a beach just abpve the main mutton cove beach. We also saw a dead blue penguin on a beach just above anapai the next day. The penguins were untouched and with the driftwood. But looked freshly dead. Not sure they were blue penguins but very tiny and looked similar.
Midlands beach kaiteriteri side of Bark Bay 2 were spotted getting up close to a fellow wilson boat awaiter.
Did not take a photo as didnt have this app at the time, so didnt realize it was something to look out for
