From the Driver's Seat: Calves at Ikawai

Every Thursday, we're handing the camera over to the people who know our roads best, our drivers. Each week one of the team sends in their favourite shot from a delivery, and we share it here along with a bit about where it was taken and what they were up to.

This week's shot comes from Matthew, out at Ikawai, with some very curious company.

Driver: Matthew

Route/Location: Ikawai, North Otago

Delivery: Diesel

Matthew had just pulled up on a farm delivery when three calves wandered straight over to say hello, nose to bumper with the truck before he'd even had a chance to get out. Moments like this are one of the small perks of rural delivery work, you never quite know who's going to turn up to greet you.

It's a good reminder of the kind of properties our drivers visit week to week, right in among the farm animals that make up daily life on the land.
