Maungatautari Ecological Island

Having got back to Taupo in the dark on Saturday night, we quickly ate and crashed early.  It had been a long and exciting day.  On the Sunday we decided to detour our way back to Auckland by re-visiting Maungatautari Ecological Island, just outside Cambridge, if you have not been there I highly recommend it.

We spent three hours in there and managed to take the following images:

One of the primary reasons for purchasing the Defender was to enable us to get to places where we can observe and photograph New Zealand native birds.  You can see more of my bird images on my Flickr page.
