a Tui - Bit small so I've cropped it and had to sharpen a bit too much to get it to stand out (Yea Right - for the Kiwis here)

Pukekoe - Taken on one of the bike tracks near our house. I'd been having a battle with him for a few days. I'd go to take his picture and he would hide. I'd walk past without a camera and he would all but follow me around. So I went and hid in a bush for an hour and finally got him.

Next day I went to Nga Manu and there are groups of them hanging around wait to be fed :oops:

Great shots. Nos 1 & 2 are winners. I really like the colours in the feathers in both of these shots. We have a bird just like no 4, but with a very common name - Purple Swamp Hen.
