Especially notable for being the best place to get Foxton Fizz!

... being the first thing that comes to mind when hearing Foxton :-)

Sure, but what about Pūkorokoro / Miranda, population 120. It seems to be a pretty random selection.

Miranda has a lot of mud flats, and is an important part of the migratory path of these birds.

The river around the Foxton area may be similar.

Well, it is New Zealand's fox town.

Miranda has a lot of tidal mud flats, and is an important stop on the migratory path of these birds. Foxton may be similar, there are a lot of tidal mud flats on the river.
