Hi Anthony,
Another spot to go would be the gannet colony at Muriwai not far from Auckland
if you were there in breeding season. I also saw several species at Mt
Aspiring National Park that I didn't see elsewhere, although we were on
holiday, not on a birding trip.
If you didn't want to buy a field guide, but have internet access,<
http://nzbirdsonline.org.nz>, is an excellent site developed as a result of a
collaboration by DOC (N.Z. conservation), OSNZ (Ornithological Society of New
Zealand) and Te Papa (National Museum), so you might want to have a look at it.
I hope you enjoy the trip.
