Gum on China’s Shoe<p>Pretty sure this is a female North Island robin or toutouwaii (Petroica longipes) on Tiritiri Matangi island, north of Auckland.</p><p>This was an absolutely magic interaction. The bird perched probably no more than two metres away from me - I don’t think this image was cropped at all. It hunted on the forest floor and bathed in a puddle right next to me with complete disregard for my presence.</p><p><a href="https://toot.community/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/BirdPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/TiritiriMatangi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TiritiriMatangi</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/NewZealand" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NewZealand</span></a></p>

Gum on China’s Shoe<p>A takahe (Porphyrio hochstetteri) on Tiritiri Matangi island.</p><p>I was going to describe them as “like a pukeko on steroids”, then saw that my New Zealand field guide does in fact use the sentence “Like an enormous pukeko”. That beak looks like it could cut through padlocks. They are classified as a “very rare endemic” of New Zealand, now found primarily on island reserves.</p><p><a href="https://toot.community/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/BirdPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/TiritiriMatangi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TiritiriMatangi</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/NewZealand" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NewZealand</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/takahe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>takahe</span></a></p>

Gum on China’s Shoe<p>I think this is a korimako or bellbird (Anthornis melanura), on Tiritiri Matangi Island, north of Auckland. Any kiwi birders who know otherwise, please jump in to correct me.</p><p>If you like birds and ever get a chance to go to Tiritiri Matangi, you really have to go. One ferry in and one ferry out every day. I think I did the equivalent of six months of quality bird photography in one day.</p><p><a href="https://toot.community/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/BirdPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BirdPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/NewZealand" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NewZealand</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/TiritiriMatangi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TiritiriMatangi</span></a></p>
