On a recent visit to Big Manly beach on the Whangaparaoa peninsular I was impressed to see some new dotterel signage.
On a recent meetup with keen to help conservation staff from Auckland Council I requested some of these new metal signs.
I have some doubts considering the lifespan of these signs in the salty environment of our local estuaries however they are worth a trial as their messaging is good. They also look excellent. All that was required was to drill a couple of holes to be able to fix them up. Hopefully in the location below they will compliment a rather confusing dog bylaw sign to protect this sensitive and important dotterel and shorebird habitat. locally
