    Photographed in our garden amongst approx thirty other tui,feeding on Prunus campanulata late August 2013. The colouration is known as Luesistic, occurring in one in 10,000 birds. Two others were photographed around Hamilton during the same period, all with varying degrees of pale colouration

    My dog and I were sitting on an old logging skid site one evening glassing some clearings and some keas joined us. One of them hopped along the same log the dog was on and she started looking at me really nervous so I told her to stay there, the kea bounced along slowly and when the dog looked around at me it bit onto her foot. Jesus did the poor dog scream.
