The Tui is the one endemic bird to have survived and even thrived in the presence of humans on New Zealand. They have entered the national consciousness like no other bird, not even the Kiwi which is rarely seen or even heard these days.
The Tui has become very much an intimate part of daily life, whereas so many other birds have languished and died out or stayed away in the deep bush and shunned human presence.
Scott #196 New Zealand VFNH 1935 dark green 1 shilling Tui bird.
