Depending on which walk you do the native forest birds include Tui, Bellbird, silvereye, brown creeper, kaka, kea, weka, tomtit, yc parakeet, kereru, Robin, morepork. SI tieke on Adele Island.
There are also a few blue duck.

Brown teal have been reintroduced around Awarua bay too I believe. Ebird is probably a good place to start looking at what to expect in what areas. Should be reasonable records for some of that area anyway. Have had reef heron in Totaranui etc.
