Getting the some Pit tags ready for banding Hihi chicks next week.

The bands are injection modelled and customised to hold an RFID chip with a unique number for each Hihi.

The first wave of the Hihi season continues. The birds laid a month earlier than usual and the last nest of this wave hatched today 🎉

The other females are getting ready, and then the season will really crack on

Surrounded by hihi eggs 💛🖤🤍

The core nest structure remains the same, but the females tend to be different as they line the nest with various finds such as feathers and moss.

Lighthouse at wildlife reserve. Hard to believe this was taken less than two weeks ago given how cold and wet it is today. 😔 Good weather for writing I suppose.

Our last days in New Zealand and this is what I shall miss the most when we fly back to the Alp: The sound of Bellbirds, Tuis, Hihi, Tieke and many others.
Sound up.

- absolute paradise, the way Aotearoa was before we introduced all sorts of wankers like rats and stoats. Hearing singing in the trees while taking photos of , as the fly over was absolutely amazing.

-Nevnt tidligere at enkeltstående eller samlet små grupper løvtrær danner sfærisk ytre omriss. Minsker tap av varme, gir fuktfordeling (av dugg/nedbør), deler opp vind til passe porsjoner. Vestlands-fortid.
