Meet My resident Tui's...

Some years ago, in my garden I planted a Banksia and a Kowhai  Tree in the hope of attracting one of my favourite birds,The Tui, a New Zealand native bird... known for its Melodious Bird song...
Well over the last few days I have been being entertained by these beautiful creatures...







I have mananged to capture a couple of photos of these delightful birds and their acrobatic antics in their bid to gain nectar from the flowers of these trees... a couple are slightly blurred but hopefully you'll 'get the picture'...Enjoy!
