Friday Feathered Friend

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Picture and words from Louise Thomas.
"North Island saddleback/Tīeke (Philesturnus rufusater) at Bushy Park on 12 July. Not the best shot of a saddleback I've taken, but they can be tricky busy birds, continuously moving in the dark undergrowth, tossing over leaves and dark mysterious lumps looking for tasty ground grubs. They usually only take off into a tree like this when being chased by one of their contemporaries in a noisy altercation about turf. Bird #87 in 2022."
