Tīeke, Saddleback Needlepoint Kit

Called Tīeke in Maori, this bird is now found on only a few off-shore islands around New Zealand. It forages for insects in the treetops and on the ground and uses its beak as a lever to pull off dead bark. It is a noisy feeder and is often accompanied by fantails looking for insects that it has missed
