The Fantail, known as Pīwakawaka in Māori, is a delightful little bird native to New Zealand. Its fan-shaped tail, which it flicks from side to side, makes it easy to recognize. Fantails are curious and agile, often seen flitting about in forests, parks, and gardens. Their acrobatic flight and distinctive chirping calls add to their charm. In Māori mythology, the Fantail is considered a messenger, bringing news from the gods to the people. This beloved bird holds a special place in New Zealand’s natural and cultural heritage.
