Where to spot
Endemic to the North Island of New Zealand, found in isolated patches of native forest, particularly in sanctuaries and pest-controlled areas.
How to spot
Look for a dark grey bird with a pale belly, often on the forest floor, where it hops and pauses. Its curiosity often brings it close to observers. Listen for its soft, whistled calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active throughout the day, often seen foraging on the forest floor or perching low in the undergrowth. Most vocal in the mornings.

These robins are remarkably fearless and curious, often approaching humans closely, especially when they are digging or disturbing leaf litter, hoping to catch disturbed insects.
