EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative studio photograph captures the beauty and grace of the Turnagra tanagra, also known as the North Island Piopio, a once vibrant and distinctive bird species native to New Zealand and part of the larger Australasian avian family. The Turnagra tanagra was a medium-sized, long-billed, brown passerine, belonging to the families Tringidae and Oriolidae, and the suborder Passeriformes, which includes the majority of modern birds. The Tanagra tanagra, with its striking tanager-like plumage and oriole-like bill, was a beloved and iconic bird of the North Island, with males displaying bright orange-red feathers and females featuring a more subdued, olive-brown coloration. Sadly, this magnificent bird is now considered extinct, with the last confirmed sighting occurring in 1981. Habitat loss, predation by introduced species, and competition with other bird species were among the primary factors contributing to its demise. This poignant photograph of a Turnagra tanagra specimen, captured by acclaimed wildlife photographer Harry Taylor in 2009, serves as a poignant reminder of the beauty and fragility of the natural world and the importance of conservation efforts to protect endangered species and their habitats. The Turnagra tanagra's scientific name, Turnagra tanagra, reflects its classification as a member of the Sauropsida, a group of vertebrates that includes reptiles and birds, and the order Passeriformes, which includes perching birds. The Turnagra tanagra's Maori names include Korohea, Pipio, Pipio Kata, and Pipio, reflecting the deep cultural significance of this bird to the indigenous peoples of New Zealand. This photograph is a poignant testament to the Turnagra tanagra's legacy and a reminder of the importance of preserving the natural world for future generations.
