The black robin was only found in the Chatham Islands and in the 80's was the world's most endangered bird. Only five remained and only two were females, one of which had never produced a fertile egg. A massive conservation program was in place and today there are more than 200 scattered around various offshore predator free islands.There is a feel good story for all the greenies <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> The bird you have photographed is most likely a North Island Robin.</blockquote>
