Sunny spring-time days, already in town, got your camera and a few hours? Go to Zealandia! If you’re lucky, you might spot some of NZs rarest birds. Top tip – if you want to get pictures of birds before they’re frightened away, you will need to go to the back tracks. This was the first time I’ve seen a hihi!
Not pictured: titipounamu. I saw a pair but just wasn’t fast enough with my camera. Same for the kakariki as well, come to that.
