Lake Tarawera is home many colourful birds. Pictured is the iconic "Tui", known for it's shimmering cloak of blues, greens, and bronze and a pair of white, curled feather tufts at their throat, known in Māori as poi. You will usually hear a Tui before you see it, It's prominent & distinctive melody is a hallmark of New Zealand's native forests.
