I love how the birds just hang around the campsite. I some vids, I see the Kiwi-like bird prancing around like a chicken and checking everything out--seems to like the heat from the fire--tame and fearless. Then there are the Robins, perching on the woodpile and hopping around like sparrows about, acting so curious and wanting to be KZitemrs too, with their tall skinny legs and fat feathery face--too cool.

About the firestarter - don't feel guilty about not rubbing a couple of sticks together for a few hours to get an ember - especially with NZ wood. I use firestarters all the time - it comes back to the fact that this is your camp and your enjoyment. You're not here to try and impress the purists. I am also going to get the air pump - man that turbo heats the fire!
