Magic Moment

Picton, New Zealand

The most beautiful moment of my journey in 2013/2014 was in Picton, New Zealand. In the boat sailing through the Sounds. Only the sounds of birds, sea lions, occasionally rumble of the boat and the water hitting the boat. Everybody quiet, five tourists, a researcher, skipper and guide.

Nature At Its Most Beauty!

Mountains and fjords, the silence, and the bird island where nothing and no one is allowed to stay and go without permission. And suddenly a loud noise! The cover is opened gently, two young penguins! 

Too Early In The Season In The Nest Box, But Oh So Beautiful!

Surrounded by birds that walk-in front of me! Not at all afraid of people! Very few people are allowed on the island. After about half a day I can feel the magic! I do not want to break it, because if I get off the boat the ‘normal’ world awaits. The funny thing is that all 8 people felt the same.
