Looks like a White-spotted Fantail, from southern and central India
The fantail in this magnet appears to be based on the fantail in that exact photograph!

I do love the idea that the Woodchat Shrike is a "North Island" Tomtit! I presume that the chestnut cap is the thing that separates it from South Island subspecies.....

A mural from Auckland. I can't say that I expect to see an Atlantic Puffin hereabouts any time soon, but this certainly does remind me of the false alarm from 2016 of a Common Murre being found in New South Wales. Now there's a sighting that would have gone down in history.

From a poster for children. There was some confusion with the Musk Lorikeet involved here, I think.

Alcedo atthis and Koru. The artist already knows the difference between this species and the native Sacred Kingfisher and has made artwork that depicts the latter species.
