When you gotta go, you gotta go.
When Thames artist Kylie Gunn was brainstorming ideas for a mural on the Kauaeranga Valley Rd toilets, birds and the call of nature naturally came to mind.
She's a big fan of painting birds, and the toilet block is now adorned with beautiful native birds commonly seen in the Coromandel — with the words ''when nature calls''.
''I came up with the idea in bed at night. I wasn't too sure so I ran it past my family and friends and asked what they thought. They loved the idea too,'' she says.
Thames Coromandel District Council approached Kylie about doing the mural and she has donated her time.
