Miscellaneous Kiwiana
The Kiwi crossing sign is frequently reproduced on teeshirts, keychains, pins and buttons (called badges, in NZ, if you ever need to ask), and other tourist stuff. It’s certainly charming, but we found this other Kiwi crossing sign in only one place, painted on the asphalt adjacent to the yellow warning sign. With a few basic lines, it really reads Kiwi, like a good cave painting.
There’s also a penguin crossing sign, delightfully species-specific. This is a Yellow-eyed penguin warning sign, from Stewart Island. Does that mean it’s okay to not stop for Blue Penguin?
