Kereru - The Berry Buffet Connoisseur of New Zealand's Forests!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, we witness the majestic New Zealand Pigeon, also known as Kereru, perched gracefully on a tree branch in Westland National Park. With its vibrant plumage and striking red eyes, this endemic bird is about to embark on a delightful feast of juicy berries. Renowned for its crucial role as one of the main seed distributors in the forest, Kereru takes center stage in this enchanting scene. As it prepares to indulge in nature's buffet, you can almost hear its contented coo echoing through the lush foliage. This feathered connoisseur not only captivates us with its beauty but also reminds us of the vital ecological services it provides. Through devouring these succulent berries, our avian friend unwittingly spreads seeds far and wide across New Zealand's landscape. As Steffen & Alexandra Sailer expertly capture this moment frozen in time, they invite us into an awe-inspiring world where wildlife thrives amidst breathtaking landscapes. So let your imagination take flight alongside Kereru and immerse yourself in the wonders of West Coast's South Island paradise. Join us on a visual journey through national parks teeming with life; discover Australasia's hidden gems nestled within Oceania’s embrace. Let this print transport you to an island sanctuary where pigeons reign supreme – all without mentioning commercial use or any company involved!
