Fiordland or Te Rua-o-Te-Moko - Te Anau Bird Sanctuary Visit & Guided Tour 2022
Fiordland or Te Rua-o-Te-Moko - Te Anau Bird Sanctuary Visit & Guided Tour 2022, 4 photographic images by our digitising archivist, S. Best
November 2022 was one of the most awesome trips I have ever got to take so far, as Digitising Archivist for the Central & Western Archive - Murihiku Southland. I got in a pen with Takahē at the Bird Sanctuary in Te Anau, it has been a long held wish of mine. Having been past lots of times, it was my new position of collating community history on our district that motivated me to finally do it.
For those of you who do not know about this amazing Native flightless bird (but not the most famous in 'Kiwiland'), it was thought extinct until 1948 when they were re-discovered in Te Rua-o-te-moko or Fiordland, by Dr Geoffrey Orbell. More about this amazing discovery can be found, along with some history of the breeding programme to bring the Takahe back from the edge of extinction, in our Community Archive here, with entry CWA.056.801.010 South Island takahē - Porphyrio hochstetteri, are the world’s largest living rail. More photos/videos from this trip to visit them will follow at a later date.
You can get guided tours of Punanga Manu o Te Anau Te Anau Bird Sanctuary from the DOC - Department of Conservation Te Anau Office, on the Lakefront, Te Anau. The sanctuary supports national recovery programmes for some the most endangered bird species in Aotearoa. The small cost to take a guided tour and see the birds up close, helps to sustain the fabulous ongoing work the Bird Sanctuary and their dedicated staff do.
While you can visit the surrounding park for free, and see the birds from a distance, I highly recommend the reasonably priced guided tour to get more up close and personal with these beautiful creatures and others. For more information on how to contact them, see in the place notes field below.
The history of this facility and the story of the rediscovery of Takahe, will be added to further, elsewhere in these Community Archives. In the meantime,if you or anyone you know has got any more photos, information or accounts of trips or wildlife at the Te Anau Bird Sanctuary over the years, please make a comment in the space provided under the image page, or make contact via the archive email on the front page. Sharing our history of the communities we belong to, enriches all of us.
