Summary[edit] Description: The tui (Prosthemadera novaeseelandiae) is an endemic passerine bird of New Zealand. It is one of the largest members of the diverse honeyeater family. The name tui is from the Māori name tūī and is the species' formal common name. The plural is tui in modern English, or ngā tūī in Māori usage; some speakers still use the '-s' suffix to produce the Anglicised form tuis to indicate plurality, but this practice is becoming less common. The early European colonists called it the parson bird, but, as with many New Zealand birds, the Maori name tui is now the common name and the English term is archaic. Date: 22 August 2010, 13:28.

Tūi sculpture 'Izzy' on Victoria Street, Wellington. It was built for Forest and Bird in 2006 by artists associated with Weta Workshop. The bird is 4 metres long and 2m high and weighs 200kg. It was moved from their previous offices in 2016 and reinstated on Victoria Street in 2019.
Tui, one of New Zealand's native honeyeaters, are important pollinators of native forest flowers. The tui's beak is perfectly shaped to fit into the harakeke, or NZ flax, flower from which it feeds on nectar. They are intelligent, aggressively territorial, and are said to be able to imitate the calls of nearly every other bird, as well as a vast array of other sounds.
