A male Eurasian Penduline Tit is seen head-on, perched above the initial stage of its nest, which it has woven on a forked, downward-hanging willow branch. It turns its head to the side, revealing its distinctive black mask and eye.

This image shows a male Eurasian Penduline Tit head-on, perched above the initial stage of its nest, which it has woven into a forked, downward-hanging willow branch. It faces the viewer, opening its beak as if shouting.

Lächelndes Rotkehlchen ist ein Aquarellgemälde im Hochformat handgemalt von der Künstlerin Karen Kaspar.
Ein kleines Rotkehlchen mit leuchtend orangefarbener Brust steht auf einem hellblauen Schatten. Der Hintergrund ist minimalistisch und unterstreicht die farbenfrohe Präsenz des Vogels. Der kleine Vogel schaut in Richtung des Betrachters und scheint ihn freundlich anzulächeln.
Das Rotkehlchen ist wie andere Singvögel ein gern gesehener Gast in meinem Garten und inspiriert mich immer wieder zu neuen Gemälden.

‘Little Blue Tit on a Branch’ is a portrait-format watercolor painting hand-painted by the artist Karen Kaspar.
A little blue tit sits on a thin branch, looking to the right. Its blue and yellow plumage is reflected in the soft green tones of the abstract background.
Blue tits (Cyanistes caeruleus) are welcome visitors to the bird feeder and in my garden. I love watching them and they are always a welcome subject for new paintings.

<p>This week was the 18th birthday of fortnightly run route through southwestern Ōtautahi-Christchurch, NZ. This is my 10.1 km route where I've been counting and mapping all the birds and butterflies and assorted other species.</p><p>I started the route on 9 July 2008, while on parental leave, pushing my baby daughter around in a buggy during her afternoon nap. I wanted her to be able to know how the city's nature changes over her lifetime. I've been doing it ever since (and have added three other routes to cover other parts of the city).</p><p>In celebration of the route's 18th birthday, here are all the korimako (NZ bellbirds) I've seen and heard. Korimako have been a huge success story for the city. The native forest regeneration and pest control happening in the city's Port Hills have led to booming numbers of korimako, and the native tree plantings in the city have been attracting birds out from the hills.</p><p>As my run route has shown, within the city the korimako are mostly in areas of native tree plantings and in gardens with mature bird nectar plants (especially kōwhai, banksia, eucalyptus, and harakeke). Korimako are still largely absent from the areas of housing that don't have any of these.</p><p>(We still need many more native trees in the city if we want more native birds.)</p><p><a href="/tags/wildcounts/" rel="tag">#wildcounts</a> <a href="/tags/ecologicalmonitoring/" rel="tag">#EcologicalMonitoring</a> <a href="/tags/birds/" rel="tag">#birds</a> <a href="/tags/christchurch/" rel="tag">#Christchurch</a> <a href="/tags/ōtautahi/" rel="tag">#Ōtautahi</a> <a href="/tags/nz/" rel="tag">#NZ</a> <a href="/tags/nature/" rel="tag">#nature</a> <a href="/tags/ecology/" rel="tag">#ecology</a></p>

A photo of the olive green fluffy butt of a korimako (NZ bellbird). This was one of two male birds feeding from flowers in a kōwhai tree I planted as a seedling (taken from my Granny's house) in the garden of our old house. This garden is now owned by some friends of ours.

A graph showing the generally rising number of korimako observations per run between 2008 and 2026. In the early years I'd be lucky if I heard one or two korimako. Now I'm regularly hearing a few birds every run. (Each point on the graph is one run, and the line is a "smooth spline" fitted to the points to show the trend. Overall it's a statistically significant increasing trend.)

A GIS map of my 10.1 km run route through southwestern Christchurch city, with coloured points on the map showing each korimako I saw or heard. The cooler coloured points are earlier years and the warmer coloured points are recent years. (See the animation on the next post if you want a better look at each run.)

Hand-annotations on the GIS map highlighting the parts of the route with either areas of native vegetation planted, or planted bird nectar trees (kōwhai, banksia, eucalyptus). The areas of the run without any of these still largely lack korimako. Areas were a lot of these now have a lot of the birds.

Sparrow meeting part one is an acrylic painting in portrait format hand-painted by the artist Karen Kaspar.
This painting is part of my mini-series of three paintings - Sparrow Meeting One, Two and Three. Each of these paintings shows a female sparrow sitting on a branch. Each of these pictures can be hung on its own. However, the three paintings can also be perfectly combined to form a triptych and hung together on a wall for a joint sparrow meeting.
