Wanderings and Wonderings on Whenuahou

I write this diary from the Sealers Bay hut, Codfish Island, Whenuahou.  I have just arrived on this beautiful 1396 hectare nature reserve which lies to the north west of Stewart Island, in the most celebratory fashion.  I was flown in on a fixed wing light aircraft across the Foveaux Strait which homed in on a magnificent landing on Sealers Bay beach.  I hadn’t known what to expect of Cod fish Island but the sight I beheld surpassed my wonderings and wanderings.
