Hello all..I have just returned from an 8 day trip to New Zealand. My wife and I did the 4 day Queen Charlotte Track; and a Kaikoura Pelagic; as well as visits to Motuara Island and Karori sanctuary in Wellington. The trip was highly successful with lots of good endemics as well as seabirds seen and photographed. The highlights for me were getting pictures of Westland Petrel, Salvin’s Albatross, King Shag, Saddleback and Stitchbird. I have just launched a detailed Trip report on wildiaries with lots of pics.probably only of interest to anyone intending to go there. Anyway, I can highly recommend the itinerary to anyone with a short amount of time.
