This week marked an exciting milestone for the Ī’oi project led by Te Ipukarea Society, as researchers successfully captured and tagged the first ī’oi in the Takitumu Conservation Area. This achievement kicks off a critical phase in understanding and protecting these elusive forest birds. Over the next few weeks, the team of ī’oi researchers will be catching as many ī’oi as possible in ‘mist nets’ with the help of a team from the Department of Conservation from New Zealand who are here on their annual kākerōri banding trip.
