Fire and Emergency are trying to track down the owner of a southeast Auckland rural property where a vegetation fire is burning for a second day.
Crews have worked overnight to contain the blaze on Papakura-Clevedon Rd in Ardmore.
It broke out at around 4pm yesterday.
Incident controller Thomas Harre said they haven't been able to "track down" the property owner yet, but said "indications show there was someone burning a [controlled] fire there".
Harre urged people not to leave unattended fires burning, and if they require any help to contact Fire and Emergency.
