The Maori name of the Fantail is Piwakawaka. The Black Fantail is more common in the South Island but they are found in the North. A very friendly little native of Aotearoa. Their aerial manoeuvres, all in the pursuit of small insects are fascinating to watch. Also known as a messenger in Maori Mythology
