There was a seagull frolicking around the dock - this displeases the great heron. Repentance is required.

you know what. I cast spell of pīwakawaka snuggle session

ID: dozens of tiny round birds with long white tail feathers snuggled up together on a wire. the wire is bending from the weight of all the birds

the all black pīwakawaka in some of these photos is a rare morph that accounts for about 3% of all pīwakawaka!

another fun fact- there are over two dozen regional names across aotearoa me te waipounamu for these guys: hīrairaka, hītakataka, hīwai, hīwaiwaka, hīwakawaka, kōtiutiu, kōtiutiu, pīrairaka, pīrakaraka, pīrangirangi, pītakataka, pīwaiwaka, pīwakawaka, tīaiaka, tīaka, tīakaaka, tieaka, tīrairaka, tīrakaraka, tītaiwaka, tītakataka, tītakataka, tītīrairaka, tīwaiwaka, tīwakawaka and wakawaka.

Sweet little Tufted Titmouse. I feel like these guys would curse like sailors tho. Something about their general vibe.
