A Symphony in Ink and Colour

More Than Just a Bird

In Māori culture, the tūī is a messenger, a symbol of harmony between the physical and spiritual worlds. Its melodious song fills the forest with joy, reminding us to slow down, breathe, and appreciate the simple things. Isn’t that a message we could all use a little more of in our lives?
