The flowering Kowhai Tree is often one of the first signs of Spring. But the Daffodils I saw flowering today in the Saturday afternoon sun were also a sure sign of an early Spring.

 

Tui often puff out their chest which aids them to vocalise.

 

The name Tui is from the Maori language name tūī and is the species' formal common name. 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.

The tui (Prosthemadera novaeseelandiae) is 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 Māori name tūī and is the species' formal common name. The plural is tui in modern English, or ngā tūī in Māori usage;[2] some speakers still use the '-s' suffix to produce the Anglicised form tuis to indicate plurality, but this practice is becoming less common.[3] The early European colonists called it the parson bird,[4] but, as with many New Zealand birds, the Maori name tūī is now the common name and the English term is archaic

The Tui's have discovered the oranges I put out for the Silvereyes this morning. At this time of year, when nectar is short they enjoy the sugar from the fruit.

Anlässlich des 100-jährigen Bestehens der Eisenbahn- bzw. Bundesbahndirektion Hamburg fanden am Wochenende 3. und 4. März 1984 zahlreiche Sonderfahrten mit historischen und modernen Fahrzeugen statt. Die 103 224-2 vom Bw Hamburg-Eidelstedt hatte am Sonntag, den 4. März, die Aufgabe, den TUI-Ferien-Express D 27205 von Hamburg nach Elze zu bespannen. Abgelichtet wurde die Fuhre trotz ungünstiger Wetterverhältnisse auf der Oberhafenbrücke in Hamburg.

Yesterday I went in search of bush birds and terns. I had no luck but when I returned to the car park I found this beauty.

Some more Tui visitors to the Kowhai tree

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, you 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.

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.

My eldest son has not long moved to Cambridge from Hamilton onto a 1 acre property. There is a stunning kowhai tree next door which attracts the tui birds by the dozen. We visited over the weekend and I am not one for photographing birds as I do not have the lens for a start, however, I did take my RF 14-35mm landscape lens with me. I was a long way from the tree, I gave it a shot and this is the result after putting my camera on burst mode. I was sure to get at least one semi-good shot. This is heavily cropped and at least an image of our beloved tui bird. It has beautiful colours, they do not show up here.

I got the chance to see and photograph a very rare leucistic Tui today.
