Everybody loves the flax flowers. Starlings are enjoying them.

But I think my favourites are the little native Tauhou who prefer to feed upside down.

known to spread seeds of native trees, shrubs, including kahikatea, coprosmas … assist with pollination of … kowhai, fuchsia

@Miraz Oh, that’s adorable. The white-breasted nuthatch likes to climb trees while upside down, but I’ve never seen it do anything like that last photo!
