Tui ground-feeding

As at Gahnia Grove, we have been surprised at how often tui come down to recently-disturbed ground to forage, as blackbirds do. Those observed have mostly been juvenile. We recorded a young tui foraging in sandy streambank a metre from water's edge under native canopy, Elaeagnus and vine weeds, as we sat resting after releasing the bank from Tradescantia.
