Had an amazing day at Tiritiri Matangi bird sanctuary. So many native birds I’ve never seen before, all just doing their thing (especially just rummaging on the forest floor) not really caring about us at all.

Saw Kākāriki, Tīeke (Saddleback!), Pōpokotea, Korimako (Bellbird!), Toutouwai (didn’t care about us one bit!), Hihi and a *lot* of Tui and Kererū. Didn’t get to see a Kōkako, but that’s a reason to go back again one day!

Highly recommended if you haven’t been 👍
