Bruce Hayward and I made this moa footprint discov Bruce Hayward and I made this moa footprint discovery in NZ the other day. Moa are extinct giant flightless birds that once roamed NZ. These footprints are the 14th such discovery ever, and at 1million years old, the oldest found in the North Island. See Youtube link in bio for video. #fossil #moa #newzealand

That means these leaves, were growing at the time when Neanderthals were just appearing in human evolution, and long before modern humans (Homo sapiens) initially appeared in Africa (about 300,000 years ago).

A walk along the Oaro coast south of Kaikoura. A g A walk along the Oaro coast south of Kaikoura. A great Cretaceous fossil locality. Didn't see any reptile bones, but various shells, including lots of belemnites. A few (actually more than a few!) dolphins came past to play too when I was getting some drone snaps of the coast.
