A cold and wet New Zealand winter week so grateful to a friend for a visit. The Tūī is a medium-sized honeyeater endemic to New Zealand.
Tui are large honeyeaters endemic to NZ. Quite common and depending on their region have different song.

A quiet morning stroll along the Hokowhitu Lagoon netted me this image of a Tui peeking out of the branches to see what I was doing below!

Another Tui feasting on one of many flowering delights in the Esplanade gardens. From the amount of pollen on his beak I'd say he was finding plenty!

Enticed with fresh orange this beauty visited our deck railing. Their iridescent feathers never cease to amaze. So pretty.
I've just noticed that the orange is reflected in his eye!

In the heart of Wellington's Brooklyn this beautiful kowhai tree attracted many tui. So cool watch them. This darling was showing off her amazing iridescent plumage between drinks.
Not always the easiest to photograph the Tui as most of the time there are flowers and branches that make it a challenge!
New Zealand bird, member of the Honeyeater family. Tūī have beautiful voices but can also sound like they're coughing. Having two voice boxes is how they sing their incredibly varied songs of clicks, barks, cackles and wheezes. Also, if you see a silent tūī with its beak open and its chest puffed out it might be singing but you just can't hear the high frequency song it is able to produce. Tūī have the ability to imitate many sounds. Some Maori keep them in cages to welcome people onto the marae.
Another shot of one of these pretty birds. They have some distinct marking and a very interesting call.
This beautiful New Zealand native bird is the Tui which is belongs to the honeyeater family of birds. It has the most wonderful birdsong, I could have sat for hours listening to them. They are very common and are usually seen enjoying the Native Kowhai blossom.
Tui in Spain has a famous cathedral. Catholic religion and river Minho did not help to prevent wars between Portugal and Spain. Europe as a concept of peace should maintain a peaceful development , where you can cross national borders without nationalistic restictions.
Taking a pause from feeding on kōwhai flowers. The kōwhai is one of the best known native trees in New Zealand and it’s our unofficial national flower. They are best known for their brilliant yellow flowers that appear in profusion in Spring and stand out among the forest greenery. Native birds such as the tui, bellbird, kākā and New Zealand pigeon/kererū/kūkū/kūkupa all benefit from kōwhai trees.
Photographed at the IPU New Zealand Campus.
Time for another tui image. I took this a wee while ago but wasn't sure whether to post it or not as it is not as harp as I would like. Lots of branches in the way to confuse the AF on my camera. However, the Topaz AI Sharpen app has helped me out a little with this photo. I quite like the action shown so I thought I will share this image.
