Amongst the gold..

Our kowhai tree - one of at least 5 is showing its beautiful colour. I rushed to get the heavy camera to capture this tui. Managed to hold the camera against a pole to get this - my injured arm is not strong at the moment.

So beautifully captured Maggiemae, a gorgeous bird and wonderful golden tones.

So nice to see you post again, but take it easy with the heavy camera ;-)
