About the Tui

The Tui, one of New Zealand’s most iconic birds, is celebrated for its striking appearance and beautiful song. Known for its glossy black plumage with iridescent blue-green highlights and a distinctive white throat tuft, the Tui is as visually captivating as it is melodious. Its dual voiceboxes enable a complex range of sounds, from whistles to clicks, often imitating other birds and environmental noises. A vital pollinator of native plants, the Tui’s presence enriches the biodiversity and beauty of any natural space.
