Biology Field Trip

Softcover, 72 pp, 230 x 175 mm

As the title of the book suggests, the poet takes the reader on a unique Biology Field Trip. Diving beneath a poetic surface, she offers a different way of seeing the natural world, with multiple perspectives and forms, acute observation, imaginative flair and her

usual streaks of humour.


Travelling on a Kororā Little Blue Penguin raft, flying with adult Ngaro Huruhuru Native Bees, assessing the architectural features of a seal colony, and discovering the world’s rarest whale are just some of the moving and memorable experiences on offer, in these transformative journeys.

   Tapping my shoulder


    with your beak


    on the fence.




    In the space


    between slats


    you offer the universe


    of your eye.
