A bellbird sighting in Hamilton's Mangakotukutuku Gully is a hopeful sign that efforts to restore native vegetation is working. The council is aiming to add nearly 1000 hectares of native bush by 2050. As part of their efforts, the Council has launched an app to help locals and visitors learn more about the city's green areas. Aimee Nooyen is Hamilton City Council's Community Restoration Adviser. She speaks with Jesse.
