There'll be a lot of celebrating going on amongst their population in Aoraki/Mount Cook. But they won't be eating mallowpuffs!

BREAKING: The wrock wren wins 2022! The underbird is now the wonderbird, rocking the establishment, and the country. It's one for the history books folks!

It was a close battle all the way through with the kororā holding the most first preference votes right to the end, but the unflappable pīwauwau managed to grab the lead with most transferred votes. The hills are going to be alive tonight with the songs of the rock wrens.

It's almost Bird of the Year voting time again. Another year, another controversy! With previous suspicions of voter fraud, a bat on the podium last year, and now the banning of the moss chicken, we're constantly kept on our toes or claws.

Big Chungus sheltered in a tree right next to the DOC visitor centre office during yesterday's snowfall. Hopefully he'll get out and about in the bluebird day that has followed. But wait... this is Big Chungus I'm talking about, so he may well shelter in the same tree most of the day waiting for the blue sky to pass!
