Grey warbler/riroriro - usually heard and not seen
The grey warbler/riroriro (Gerygone igata) has been my white whale. A goal chased, but notoriously difficult to obtain (for me anyway). They are common birds, that we have all heard warbling away through summer, but they like to hang out in dense vegetation, they are tiny (surprisingly so given how loud their song is), and when they do appear they seldom stay still long enough for me to focus.
