The melted part of the Tasman Glacier. Scary to learn that the glacier used to be there 30 years ago in 1990.
The glacier remained at a constant 28 km (17 mi) in length for all of its recorded history in the 20th century before starting its current period of rapid melting in the 1990s.
Between 2000 and 2008 alone, the glacier terminus receded 3.7 km.
Since the 1990s the terminus has retreated about 180 metres (590 ft) a year on average.
The glacier is now in a period of faster retreat where the rate of retreat is calculated to be between 477 to 822 metres (1,565 to 2,697 ft) each year.
It is estimated that the Tasman Glacier will eventually disappear and the terminal Tasman Lake will reach a maximum size in 10 to 19 years time. In 1973 Tasman Glacier had no terminal lake and by 2008 Tasman Lake was 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) long, 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) wide, and 245 metres (804 ft) deep.

When youâre a kid finding a dead squid on the beach is the best thing ever. To be honest we were fascinated too! We found it in the sand and carried it to the water to see itâs beautiful colours. It may be cold out but itâs always good to get to the beach, you never know what youâll find!

A perfect winters day for a woodland walk after 2 very miserable ones. The only benefit to 2 solid days rain here is that it snows in the mountains and out over a metre down ready for the ski season! .

Another warm autumn day today so we walked along the Godly Head track. Kitty got further along than ever!
And as a bonus we spotted dolphins swimming in the bay. .
