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.

The branch is kānuka, white tea-tree or burgan, is endemic to New Zealand as is the tui bird. Seen here living wild in the Orokonui ecosanctuary.
Hope you learned a little Maori language this Sunday :)
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!

Even parsons can disagree at times! Seen yesterday in Dunedin's ecosanctuary where these birds fly free but rats and stoats are kept out.
Flickr seems to be hiding me from my contacts. Only 56 views yesterday from nearly 4000 people, or else my photo was a bad one?

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!

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.
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.
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.
Another shot of one of these pretty birds. They have some distinct marking and a very interesting call.
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.

The tui is an endemic bird of New Zealand. A member of the honeyeater family. The name tui is from the Māori name tūī and is the species' formal common name.
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.

The New Zealand Tui gorging on the tasty kowhai flower nectar. Both the tui and the kowhai are endemic to New Zealand. Usually when you see a tui it appears to be predominantly black with white feather tufts on it's throat. The tui typically feeds upside down and when it's back catching some light "it shows it's real colours". On it's back it has brown/bronse, turquoise, purple and blue iridescent sheen. The top of it's head appears green-ish and it has red eyes.
They are usually very vocal, with a complicated mix of tuneful notes interspersed with coughs, grunts and wheezes. Tui are notoriously aggressive, and will defend a flowering or fruiting tree, or a small part of a large tree, from all-comers, whether another tui or another bird species.
They vigorously chase other birds away from their feeding territory with loud whirring wings. Tui have a display flight, in which they fly upwards above the canopy, and then make a noisy, near-vertical, dive back into the canopy. Tui play a very important role in the dynamics of New Zealand forests because they are one of the most common pollinators of flowering plants, and also disperse the seeds of trees with medium-sized fruits.
Worth enlarging.
