Ngirungiru are one of the fourteen species in the Petroica genus: the Australasian robins. They're the only one that does not contain the word 'robin' in the conventional English name. They're 'curious' (like the other NZ robins) and easy enough to photograph. They're also stinkin' cute. Here are a few, all from the Brook Waimārama Sanctuary. The first five are male, the last one is female, all adults.
