New Zealand Wood Pigeon
This New Zealand Wood Pigeon (Hemiphaga novaeseelandiae, kereru) had found a comfortable resting place in the forked branches of a kanuka tree next to our deck, where it stayed for quite some time.
Thanks to Mrs H for alerting me to it.
Well done, Mrs H!
Thank you for the flowers , Paul and JB!
Beautiful colouring on the bird. It looks like it’s about ready for a nap!
So sleepy, so peaceful,, I wish,,,,,, yawn
