is a town in Galicia (Spain), in the province of Pontevedra. It is located on the left bank of the Minho River, facing the Portuguese town of Valença.
Its original local name, Tude, was already mentioned by Pliny the Elder and by Ptolemy, in the first century of the common era. It became an episcopal see not later than the 6th century, during the Suevic rule, when bishop Anila went to the II Council of Braga. Later, in the Visigothic period, it briefly served as the capital of a Galician subkingdom under king Wittiza. After the campaigns of Alfonso I of Asturias (739–757) against the Moors, the town lay abandoned in the largely empty buffer zone between Moors and Christians, being later part of the "Repoblación" (repopulation) effort carried out a century later, during the reign of Ordoño I of Asturias (850–866). In the 10th century, it was raided by Vikings, being abandoned and later re-established in its current location.
Today the town centre is near the Inn of San Telmo. On the top of the hill, the cathedral (11th–13th century) preserves Romanesque elements in its main vestibule, and the Gothic period in the western vestibule. The town has two museums, one dedicated to archaeology and sacred art, and the other is the diocesan museum.
Two bridges connect Tui and Valença: Tui International Bridge (known in Portugal as Valença International Bridge), completed in 1878 under the direction of Gustave Eiffel, and a modern one from the 1990s. Both countries being signatories of the Schengen Treaty, there are normally no formalities in crossing what is the busiest border-point in Northern Portugal.
The municipality of Tui is composed of 11 parishes: Randufe, Malvas, Pexegueiro, Areas, Pazos de Reis, Rebordáns, Ribadelouro, Guillarei, Paramos, Baldráns and Caldelas.
Português
Tui é um município raiano da Espanha na comarca do Baixo Minho, província de Pontevedra, comunidade autónoma da Galiza, de área 68,3 km² com população de 16948 habitantes (2007) e densidade populacional de 236,69 hab/km².
Situada à beira do rio Minho, é a principal fronteira – por autoestrada e caminho-de-ferro – entre a Galiza e Portugal (Valença do Minho).
O nome do município foi dado pelos romanos como Tude, e foi mencionado pelos escritores Estrabão e Ptolemeu. Durante o período visigodo, a Catedral de Tui foi uma das sedes episcopais do reino da Galécia (actualmente correpondente à diocese de Tui-Vigo, e chegou a abranger todo o Alto-Minho). Foi depois capital de uma das sete províncias do antigo Reino da Galiza até 1833.
Atualmente, o centro do município fica perto da Loja de São Telmo. No alto do montezinho, a catedral preserva o período românico no seu vestíbulo principal, e o período gôtico no seu vestíbulo ocidental.
A cidade tem dois museus, um dedicado à arqueologia e à arte sacra, e o outro é o museu diocesano.

An endemic passerine bird of New Zealand. It is one of the largest members of the diverse honeyeater family. The name Tui is from the Maori language name tūī and is the species' formal common name. The plural is simply 'Tui', following Māori usage. The English name, Parson Bird, has fallen into disuse but came about because at first glance the Tui appears completely black except for a small tuft of white feathers at its neck and a small white wing patch, causing it to resemble a parson in religious attire.
On closer inspection it can be seen that Tui have faded browner patches on the back and flanks, a multicoloured iridescent sheen that varies with the angle from which the light strikes them, and a dusting of small, white-shafted feathers on the back and sides of the neck that produce a lacy collar.
Tui are considered to be very intelligent, much like parrots. They also resemble parrots in their ability to clearly imitate human speech, and are known for their noisy, unusual call, different for each individual, that combine bellbird-like notes with clicks, cackles, timber-like creaks and groans, and wheezing sounds—the unusual possession of two voiceboxes enable Tui to perform such a myriad of vocalisations.Some of the huge range of Tui sounds are beyond the human register. Watching a Tui sing, one can observe gaps in the sound when the beak is agape and throat tufts throbbing. Tui will also sing at night, especially around the full moon period. The yellow deposits on the crest of this Tūī are grains of pollen rubbed off from the flowers on which it has been feeding.Nectar is the normal diet but fruit and insects are frequently eaten, and pollen and seeds more occasionally. Particularly popular is the New Zealand flax, whose nectar sometimes ferments, resulting in the Tui flying in a fashion that suggests that they might be drunk. Tui are the main pollinators of flax, kowhai, kaka beak and some other plants. Note that the flowers of the three plants mentioned are similar in shape to the Tui's beak—a vivid example of mutualistic coevolution.
Male Tui can be extremely aggressive, chasing all other birds (large and small) from their territory with loud flapping and sounds akin to rude human speech. This is especially true of other Tui when possession of a favoured feeding tree is impinged. Birds will often erect their body feathers in order to appear larger in an attempt to intimidate a rival. They have even been known to mob harriers and magpies. The powered flight of Tui is quite loud as they have developed short wide wings, giving excellent manoeuverability in the dense forest they prefer, but requiring rapid flapping. They can be seen to perform a mating display of rising at speed in a vertical climb in clear air, before stalling and dropping into a powered dive, then repeating. Much of this behaviour is more notable during the breeding season of early spring—September and October. Females alone build nests of twigs, grasses and mosses.
This TUI Care Foundation and The Reef-World Foundation initiative aims to help protect coral reefs in the Dominican Republic.
The initiative is part of the international TUI Junior Academy programme and will deliver tailored marine environmental education courses to Youth Ambassadors, inspiring them to champion coral reef conservation projects and lead activities within their local communities. As part of a multi-faceted approach to protecting coral reefs, it will also introduce environmentally friendly guidelines to promote sustainable diving and snorkelling. This will help to reduce any local deterioration of the coral reef and build its resilience to wide-scale global challenges. In partnership with Reef Check Dominican Republic and the Ministry of Environment of the Dominican Republic, the project aims to significantly reduce any direct detrimental impact to coral reefs by building awareness of, and facilitating, environmentally-friendly best practices for diving and snorkelling activities.
Over 2,000 members of the community will also learn about reef protection through the environmental activities of Youth Ambassadors. Photo: 2020

We also heard some interesting noises from the trees, and we thought gardens.

Today Laura and I went to Tiritiri Matangi Island, a bird sanctuary in the Hauraki gulf. I hired a 300mm lens especially for the trip and had a bit of a play at bird photography.
Tui, are my favourite birds here in NZ and I was very keen to get a photo of one. They are also known as a "Parson Bird" for obvious reasons.
