Observations of visits and behaviour at supplemental feeders on Tiritiri Matangi Island Scientific Reserve by hihi (Notiomystis cincta) and korimako (Anthornis melanura)

Database of visitation rates and behavioural interactions at supplementary sugar-water feeders on Tiritiri Matangi Island Scientific Reserve, Auckland, New Zealand, by two species, hihi (Notiomystis cincta) and korimako (Anthornis melanura). Observations were recorded from video captured from April to September 2010. Observations were taken from every alternate hour from 0700 to 1700 hours.

mhh = Male hihi (Notiomystis cincta)

fhh = Female hihi (Notiomystis cincta)
