This Tui was trying to take possession of a kaka sugar-water feeding station. It wasn't having a lot of success. The kaka had it outnumbered, they ignored anything except serious lunges, and continued to take turns feeding.
The first morning I was in Wellington I went for a walk in a nearby park and I could hear a bird singing, but couldn't see the bird, so I waited and finally managed to see it through the trees,
not a good photo, but it was the only time I managed to capture this beauty.

Las vacaciones se acabaron, toca volver a la rutina, clases, compaƱeros, temario, hojas, mas hojas, montones de hojas....lo que me lleva a pensar como buen estudiante de forestales: De donde salen estas hojas? salen de la pasta de papel, que se produce en una fabrica papelera la cual posiblemente sea abastecida por tren. Este es el caso, en LouriƧal, localidad que los gallegos amamos (nos va en ello el maderas nuestro de cada dĆa) existen dos fabricas papeleras las cuales se abastecen de madera gallega, eso permite que todos los dĆas laborables de la semana haya nuestro querido contrabando legal de madera, que si cargado para allĆ, que si maniobra en Tui, que si trae los ealos para allĆ”.... bueno, un espectĆ”culo digno de ver, el caso es que hace muy poco tiempo, si veo el calendario mi querido conductor Jose Angel y mi no menos querido (querido de estima e!) AgustĆn nos reunimos aquel dĆa para entre cosas, dirigir el contrabando de ealos, asĆ que a las 10:40 portuguesas nos apostamos en espera del vacĆo de CP que cruzarĆa el rĆo internacional hasta Tui. Al rato, disfrutamos de nuestra querida Bombardier 1962.....
Para los perdidos, la foto esta tomada desde el lado espaƱol, al fondo vemos el Cais dos soldados (lugar donde arranca el puente) y vigilando el panorama la fortaleza de ValenƧa, un sitio digno de visitar....ya verƩis porque.
Tui (Prosthemadera novaeseelandiae), Auckland, New Zealand
Ebird checklist:
A large, dark nectar feeder endemic to New Zealand. Easily distinguished by two curled white feather tufts (āpoiā) visible on the throat. Tail and wings have blue, purple, and green iridescence. Found throughout much of New Zealand, including Auckland, Kermadec, and Chatham Islands, though mostly absent from Canterbury. Favors native forest and scrub, also venturing into suburban parks, farmland, and rural gardens. Often detected by its unique voice consisting of melodious notes intermixed with croaks, coughs, clicks, and wheezes. Also listen for its noisy whirring flight. Similar to male Eurasian Blackbird, but easily identified by its white throat feathers and iridescence. Song can be easily confused with that of a bellbird, but listen for distinct loud coughs, grunts, and wheezes in Tui song.

A fluffed-up tūī seemingly looking a bit grumpy that these harakeke buds still haven't properly opened for it yet.
TÅ«Ä«, one of New Zealand's native honeyeaters, are important pollinators of native forest flowers. The tui's beak is perfectly shaped to fit into the harakeke, or NZ flax, flower from which it feeds on nectar.
They are intelligent, aggressively territorial, and are said to be able to imitate the calls of nearly every other bird, as well as a vast array of other sounds.
