Bird of Paradise

Ha, a bit of a confusing title. Its a bird of paradise flower, but with, as far as I'm concerned a bird of New Zealand Paradise, aka. the Tui. More often then not they look just black, but the sun was really catching him.
This looks really neat - what great color.

Wow I didn't realize that tui's were such beautiful colours. It would be difficult to upstage a bird of paradise flower but the tui has done just that.

He's really getting into the nectar here. Nice image to show off his colours.

You live in such an impressive country Carole and your photos do it justice. Rowy helps me for end of my comment as it was “your photos deserve it” but I think also that your photos deserve NZ. FAV for this one and for the comment.
