I believed with all my heart that, like pizza and sex, even a bad picture of a mohua would still be good. I was wrong. I was so, so wrong. #BadBirdsNZ #Bird #birdphotography #nzbirds

#worstbirdpic three-way. You’re welcome.

[Bad Birds @BadBirdsNZ]

@njdrb Yeah but, you are forgetting the ways in which that will promote other economic activities - the writing of Dickensian novels for example.

[The Inept Birder @TheIneptBirder]

So close.
Plants: 1

@ZEALANDIA @eyemac23 Someone with better reo Māori than me could weigh in, but surely it means something like "bloom of the wise". Pua = bloom, wānanga is related to lore, knowledge, sage etc. Most of our tertiary providers use wānanga to translate "university", "institute" etc. Also sky = rangi, no?

@melissaboardman You double bait-and-switcher - a) I want my birdsong and b) why are you stealing glory from the korimako to promote #teamtitipounamu #birdoftheyear ?

[Bad Birds @BadBirdsNZ]

@peeno_noire There is nothing to worry about. Really, nothing.
Nothing at all.
But...
... just hypothetically, if there was something that might, say, have a prognosis of death is 3 to 6 weeks, have you got everything sorted? You should make arrangements now, not later.
Just in case.

These are clearly birds that are wearing human suits. Tell me I'm wrong, I dare ya!

@joshkreitzer 🏆 Well done. Caspian tern.

Twitter feels that I need to know the news that Harry Styles did not spit on Chris Pine. It makes me wonder just how many people Harry Styles did spit on to make missing one other guy so special and newsworthy?

@bartsnz Beautiful. I love the dynamism and movement, and the sense of mystery of a subject that you have cleverly captured when it is backlit. Kākā you say? I guess I'll take your word for that. It is definitely a bad bird.

[Sarah B. @bartsnz]

Tired to get a photo of the kākā munching on the kōwhai this morning but I guess it was camera shy. @BadBirdsNZ

@davidghamilton1 @Inala_Nature I really really think that it is time for you to give up the day job and devote yourself fully to comedy. Such talent simply can not be left to languish. Don't listen to what @firstdogonmoon says about the quollity of your material, she is just jealous and too political.

[The Inept Birder @TheIneptBirder]

The Hairy Woodpecker is distinguished from the Downy Woodpecker by its very long bill….as seen clearly in this amazing photo. #worstbirdpic
