About Tui

Tui can be found all over New Zealand. They live in native forests, bush reserves and bush remnants.

We love having tui at our place too. We have a feijoa tree and frangipani tree in our garden and the tui visit these trees on a regular basis. And in winter we have the tui feeder out.

It’s always nice to hear the tui sing. Did you know that tui have two voice boxes? Tui are very easy to recognise with their white ‘poi’ (tuft) under their throat.

What do tui eat

Tui love nectar.

Tui are honey eaters. They are important pollinators of many native trees and plants such as:

• pohutukawa
• rata
• kowhai
• puriri
• rewarewa
• kahikatea
• rata
• flax
