Unfurling (tūī)
The tūī is the colour of night - jet black with flashes of aurora green, shooting stars of white on his nape, the moon on his chest, and the blue promise of dawn. Twenty years ago there were only twenty to thirty breeding pairs in Wellington; now thanks to pest control they are a ubiquitous sight in everyone's garden.
