Sitting at over 30cm tall this beautiful, but boisterous common NZ bird, has an iridescent blue/green head and wings and distinctive white neck tufts which originally led it to be called the Parson Bird by the early settlers. It is one of NZ's endemic birds (only breeds here in NZ) and is one of our most popular icons.
