The Majestic Pukeko

Description

Portrait of one of New Zealand's most beautiful birds, the Pukeko. Pukeko is the Maori name for the Purple Swamphen.

I've seen a couple of Pukekos near Whatipu, the black sand beach west of Auckland, New Zealand.

Don't miss this royal fellow's companion, the Jester, in my other Pukeko Deviation: The Goofy Pukeko
