New Zealand Birds | Birds | Gallery | Stephens Island wren, Traversia lyalli The New Zealand wrens are an ancient family of tiny birds with no close affinity to other groups of birds. They arrived in New Zealand at the same time as the New Zealand thrush and the wattlebirds, wind assisted migrants in early Cenozoic times. They have short, rounded wings and a very short tail. Females are larger than males. The history of the Stephens Island wren, so far as human contact is concerned, begins and ends with the exploits of a domestic cat, so the ornithologist W.R.B.Oliver relates.
