Anniversary weekend spent down at Pureora Forest. The weather was perfect for a swim. The urchins decided the waterfall would be their swimming hole.
I didn't tell them the eels were just to their left.
Four whio flew to the right side of the waterfall. These birds are endangered, and it is very special to see them up close, and share their habitat.
Whio need fast running clean water, and there is plenty in abundance in Pureora Forest.
Further downstream is a great swimming hole, and we spent the rest of the afternoon enjoying the current and the cool water.

Took the Black fern turnoff, on the walk back to the car. Beautiful day in the forest.
