The robins were the highlight of our visit to Zealandia yesterday. We were lucky to be in the right place at the right time when staff were doing a welfare check on a female robin.

One of my favourite New Zealand birds is the tui. We live in the Wellington Region and are blessed with large numbers of these magnificent birds.
In winter the Silvereyes tend to flock together rather than go their separate ways to breed, however the pairs are often still together and make for some amazingly cute images.

I was very excited when I found a butterfly house at the Melbourne Zoo. They had so many butterflies there that I would have happily stayed there all day.
