Guest Bloggers: Campaign Manager for the Welcome Swallow, Phoebe Borwick & Haddon Smith
The Welcome Swallow is a newcomer on the New Zealand native bird scene. Winging it from Australia in the ’20s, it has made a big impression in its short time on these shores. A welcome addition, it is thought to have come to NZ when its annual migration from the Australian mainland to Tasmania was lead astray by a storm. It is a beautiful bird with dark coat of black and brown and a fiery red underbelly - indicative of it’s deep powerful presence and burning passion for its new home.

Attention! Before you rush off to the polls to vote for the most charming bird in the world - the saddleback - I’d like to thank a few people who helped me put this campaign video together. Can we have a round of applause please for musos Dan Yeabsley & Sam Auger, illustrator Kieran Reinhart and video editor/cameraman Davey Boy! Nice one.
