NEW ZEALAND

1985 Bird definitives

Issued 23rd April 1986

Saddleback - $4.00

The saddleback (Philesturnus carunculatus) recognised by its striking 'saddle' of chestnut-coloured plumage, another forest bird living in middle and lower layers of the forest and feeding on insects, fruit and nectar.  Confined until recently on Hen Island in the Hauraki Gulf and three islets off the south-western tip of Stewart Island, the saddleback has now been re-established on a number of North Island islands, Maud Island in the Marlborough Sounds and islands around Stewart Island.  The saddleback was, prior to 1900, distributed through much of New Zealand's forest areas and on many offshore islands.
