There are many differences between the tui and the kiwi.

  • Kiwi are Flightless Birds; tui are flighted birds
  • Kiwi make a single "kee-wee" sound; tui are capable of a wider range of vocalisations, including mimicking human speech
  • Kiwi are omnivores, feeding on insects, larvae, worms, eels, frogs, fungi, fruit and seeds; Tui are honeyeaters, primarily feeding on nectar, although they also eat fruit and insects

What does the tui look like?

A Tui is a kind of bird. Its plural is simply Tui. A Tui is almost completely black except under its neck. A small tuft of white feathers are placed under the Tui's neck. Tui are considered intelligent, just like the parrot. They also resemble parrots because of their ability to clearly imitate humans. Watching a Tui sing, one can observe gaps in the sound when the beak is agape and throat tufts throbbing. Tui will also sing at night, especially around the full moon period. Nectar is the normal diet but fruit and insects are frequently eaten, and pollen and seeds more occasionally. Particularly popular is the New Zealand flax, whose nectar sometimes ferments, resulting in the Tui flying in a fashion that suggests that they might be drunk
