Kaka, Kereru, Kokako

All these species were encountered together on a kokako territory in the headwaters of the Maratoto on the 24th April 1992. Within a 30 square metre area - just as the morning sunlight was hitting the highest branches, I watched a single kaka drinking nectar from rata blooms, four fat kereru feeding in an emergent miro, and two kokako singing and gliding from tree-to-tree. By the 1990s this was a rare congregation of large forest birds in the Coromandel Ranges.
