Helen, Liz, Donna, Kat and Wanda - thank you. Wiki gives a good description of the tui, thanks for mentioning it Kat. In there it mentions that the English name is "Parson Bird" because of the white tuft of feathers at its throat. We never hear it referred to by that name here. They are not very common in our neighbourhood and, whenever we hear one there is always a rush to go out and see if we can see it. So I was really pleased to see so many in the park.

Thank you Susan and Doug. Yes spring is well advanced. However, looking outside our dining room window at present you would be forgiven for thinking winter had arrived : the ground is white with plum blossom petals. :-)

Thank you Julia. I'm glad you got a chuckle.

Thank you Delana.

Thank's Bronwyn. They are certainly fun to photograph.
