    Bellbird 03_9825.jpg
  • In 1969, only 24 bellbirds existed on Tiritiri Matangi Island!  Supplemental feeding stations with sugar water helped the bellbirds to move beyond their dependence on the fruit and flowers of the two surviving puriri trees on Tiritiri.

  • The beautiful dawn chorus of bellbirds singing in harmony can still be heard on Tiritiri Matangi, New Zealand.

  • Bellbirds on a dried flax, Southland, New Zealand
    Bellbird 37_H7C3517.jpg
  • Like the other two New Zealand honeyeaters, the Tui and the Bellbird, they feed on a mixture of nectar, fruit, and insects.  The stitchbird is the lowest in the pecking order of the three honeyeaters and will only be permitted to feed on low-grade sources of nectar when the tui and bellbird are also present.

  • Kakariki began eating flax on TIritiri Matangi in the late 1990s, reducing flax-flower stems down to only two by 2000!  When kakriki numbers declined significantly in the winter of 2001, flax flowering improved, much to the benefit of the three nectar-eating species: tui, bellbird, and stitchbird.

  • Previously categorized as a honeyeater along with the tui and bellbird, the stitchbird is now classed as the only member of its own family, the Notiomystidae. The stitchbird's nearest relative appears to be New Zealand wattlebirds, such as kokako.

  • The kokako is mostly heard and seen at dawn and in the morning.  In contrast to the energetic and bright voices of tuis and bellbirds, the kokako's mournful song is a reminder of the destruction of New Zealand birdlife and forests.  Around twenty plus kokako are carefully monitored on Tiritiri Matangi Island, New Zealand.
