The Return of the Tūī ' Me he korokoro tūī ' / ' How eloquent is he/she, who has the throat of a Tūī '
Tūī disappeared from Banks Peninsula about 20 years ago. In 2007 a group began planning to bring Tūī back.
100 hectares of bush in the Hinewai Reserve was chosen as the release site and predator control undertaken.
Since their release in 2009, most of the Tūī have been located. Subsequent releases of  tūī are underway and we welcome donations to complete this transfer and to continue predator-trapping.
