| For a little while we have been hearing the Tui in these big Flame trees but they have been well hidden and we haven't seen the actual birds - just lots of their melodic song. Finally one decided to feed on the flowers that were in sight. The quality of the photos isn't great sorry, the light was such that I could't actually see what I was photographing!! |
 |
| The Tui, aka The Parson Bird - for obvious reasons! |
I'll have to keep watch to see if I can get some clearer shots!
See you next time,
Raewyn.
