New Zealand Silvereye (Maori name #Tauhou) sometimes called Waxeye. This very small bird was first recorded in New Zealand in 1832, but arrived in numbers in the 1850s. As an apparent self introduced bird, presumably swept eastwards in a storm, they have the status of being a NZ native bird.  They, along with other birds love to feed on the honey water I put out for them. #nofilter #birds #nzbird #nz_birds #silvereye #waxeye #nature #naturelovers #bestnatureshots #wildlife
