It has been truly miserable weather in Auckland this weekend.

The rain stopped for a couple of hours and look who came visiting.

New Zealand's Tui.

Thanks to all for the comments.

If I remember correctly they should become more plentiful in the area over the next 2 to 4 weeks.

Very nice shots, the only critique I can offer is, try not to center the subject in the picture.

Very pretty shot -- interesting bird. Love to see all the images from other countries of birds I may never see myself.

That's a great looking bird...love the lacey feathers around the neck, and some beautiful colors on this bird. Excellent shots! Post some more of this one as you get them. This one might be enough to get me over there with my camera...heh..heh..
