One of the best sunsets I have ever seen was going by boat to a remote point for Kiwi spoting. Steward Island has one of the largest kiwi populations of all New Zealand, as ferrets (their mortal enemy) have failed to colonize this area. Kiwis are active at night and have a very poor eye-sight, so if you are quiet enough, you can get quite close and observe them under the dim light of a torch.
