The cuckoo and the warbler : a true New Zealand story / Kennedy Warne. - 35 pages : colour illustrations ; 26 cm

The Cuckoo and the Warbler tells the story of one of the most remarkable wildlife relationships in New Zealand, between p�ip�iwharauroa the shining cuckoo, and riroriro, the grey warbler. It is a story of tragedy, trickery and faithful care; and it plays out each spring and summer in the forests of Aotearoa. Although rarely seen by humans, the interaction of these two native birds is a striking example of nature's inventiveness.
