EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the beauty of a Tui bird in flight, against the stunning backdrop of Te Anau Fjordland in New Zealand's South Island. The Tui, scientifically known as Prosthemadera novaeseelandiae, is a remarkable passerine bird and one of the largest members of the honeyeater family found exclusively in New Zealand. Known for its unique appearance, the Tui earned its Maori language name "Tui" which has become its formal common name. Interestingly, this bird's English name "Parson Bird" has fallen out of use over time. At first glance, the Tui may appear entirely black except for a small tuft of white feathers at its neck and a tiny white wing patch. This distinctive feature led to its comparison with religious attire worn by parsons. The photographer Bruce Adams skillfully captured this moment when a Tui gracefully takes flight from a tree branch amidst nature's vibrant blue hues dominant in this region. With EyeUbiquitous's lens focused on this Antipodean Oceania gem, viewers can appreciate both the natural beauty surrounding Te Anau Fjordland and the elegance embodied by this native New Zealand species. This print serves as an exquisite reminder of our planet's diverse wildlife and showcases how photography can transport us to far-off places where we witness nature's wonders firsthand.
