Young korimako sound nothing like the melodious bellbird songs of older birds. Instead they go "zick zick zick".
Here's a recording I just made of the young bird in our garden.

The kōwhai trees are in fabulous full bloom across Ōtautahi-Christchurch city, NZ. They're blooming about a month late this year and are making up for that with a huge number of flowers.
That's making the korimako and kererū in the Cashmere hills happy. The korimako are pollinating the kōwhai flowers, which I guess also makes the kōwhai happy, to the extent that a kōwhai tree can be happy. The kererū, on the other hand, are eating the kowhai's flowers and young leaves.

Here's a male korimako (NZ bellbird) I photographed singing in our garden in Ōtautahi-Christchurch. I just uploaded it to #iNaturalistNZ. (It's a rainy Saturday morning so I'm working through some of my backlog of photos.)

This is the bird we call Dent Head.
We first saw Dent Head visiting our garden in October 2021. He had such a colossal head injury that we didn't expect he'd last long.
Instead, his head has healed (sort of) and he's been a regular visitor to our garden ever since.
Here's Dent Head yesterday, feeding from one of our sugar water feeders while I was hanging out laundry less than 2 metres away.
