@carlosamaya The bird you see in the video is a black robin not a bellbird but the birds singing in the background are bellbirds. Zoom on my camera was not good enough to catch one of them close enough

@bubljen the bird shown is a New Zealand Robin, not a Black Robin. Blacks are extremely rare and you wont find one anywhere near sumner.

@delete461 True. Thanks for pointing that out. :)

I liked that cool little grey fantail bird at the beginning.

Yeah he's cute. Because of that bird I made the movie at first but belbirds started to sing at the same time so I extended the whole thing just for the sake of their beautiful voices. :)

cool, I would really like to get out and go birdwatching as soon as I get out of school I find them quite interesting.
