- Description
The title reads 'Estuary like a sewer...' A godwit reads a pamphlet entitled 'Clean Green NZ' and says 'Well dear... At least turd tacos are better than toxic takeaways in Tauranga!' His wife stands glumly with a toilet roll on her beak and several more godwits arrive at the estuary with their bags. Context: Refers to the arrival of the godwits at Christchurch's Avon-Heathcote estuaries in September each year. The estuary has been plagued with pollution problems. Refers also to the grounding of the container ship 'Rena' on the Astrolabe Reef off the Bay of Plenty which threatens to become a disaster of huge proportions as oil spews into the sea.
