Farewell Spit northwest of Nelson is another major migratory path and South Brighton Spit in Christchurch attracts millions of godwits every year on their return from Siberia. The Miranda Seabird Coast near Thames on the Coromandel Peninsular is home to 8,500 hectares (21,000 acres) of tidal flats that attract millions of migratory species every year. Keen bird-watchers have many choice spots to visit. Seabirds of course abound and you'll be delighted by nesting albatross and gannets, elegant white herons, penguins, and many more. They are notorious for damaging mirrors, aerials, and other attachments on vehicles and their large, strong beaks will give you a nasty bite, so don't be tempted to feed them. This especially applies to anything shiny. Make sure you don't leave any belongings about, as keas love to steal whatever is not locked away. The green-and-orange kea is a cheeky mountain parrot with a reputation for mischief on the ski fields and in high-country camps. The flightless weka is rowdy rather than tuneful, and you'll see him in the bush or poking his nose into campsites. The handsome inky tui, with his white-tufted neck, comes a close second.

The bellbird, plain of feather and easily missed, is the songster supreme. Because of New Zealand's isolation and the evolutionary patterns that have developed here as a result, many species are found nowhere else in the world. Bird-Watching - Our bird life is abundant and our native birds (around 250 species) in particular are a rich lot, attracting bird-watchers from all over the world.
