Bush Stone Curlew Burhinus grallarius 54-59cm
The Bush Stone Curlew lies motionless and perfectly camouflaged to avoid being detected by predators. They are truly difficult to find without using a really good set of powerful binoculars and methodically scouring the ground in all directions. Unfortunately their behaviour makes them vulnerable to introduced predators such as cats and foxes. They are also known for their blood-curdling cries at night when they are communicating with each other while feeding.

Granddad Bush was in his late seventies when this photo was taken in 1972.
He fought in World War I in France as a teenager for the British and having seen more then enough hell moved to New Zealand when the Great War ended and met my grandma in the late 1920's in Gisborne if I got my family history right.
I only got a chance to meet him twice when I was little (my family lived in Montreal), he passed on in the late 1970s'.

Smiths Bush is on the North Shore, Auckland, New Zealand. There is a loop track taking about 30 - 40 minutes to walk at a leisurely pace taking you back in time with the old puriri trees. I am surprised how many people I talk to haven't been there - it's very close to the motorway (in fact cuts through it) and also close to Takapuna, Milford, Northcote and Glenfield shops.
