  Tiritiri Matangi Island - North Island Tomtit
The nest is in either a tree cavity, the end of a broken branch, in a fork attached to the trunk of a tree fern or in a thick tangle of vines.
To Maori the miromiro is one of Maui’s birds and is a significant bird, being esteemed with the huia, the royal albatross and white heron.
An observant person is spoken of as —“ he karu miromiro” - “having a tomtit eye” and the Maori called tomtits “scouts” or “torotoro” due to their habit of appearing from nowhere in the forest.

Once there was a Raven who fell in love with a Tomtit and badly wanted to marry her.
Now, for her part, the Tomtit liked the Raven, too, so she invited him to her house and began regaling him with food and drink.
He did not know if there had ever been a bean stalk as tall as the Tomtit had said or a frost as fierce, but surely his bride was too old for him if she had seen them for her own self!

 The Quantum Archangel
He finds that Stuart is now a professor at the University of West London, and he hasn't fulfilled his early promise; his encounter with Kronos left him bitter and disillusioned, all too aware that he would barely scrape the surface of the universe in his lifetime.
The Doctor is concerned by the change in Stuart, and assures him that TOMTIT was entirely his and Ruth Ingram's work; the Master needed their help because humans possess a spark of creativity which even renegade Time Lords lack.
Fearing that the Doctor would link TOMTIT to his own TARDIS in order to follow him to Atlantis, the Master had infected it with the Profane Virus of Rassilon; now, three incarnations later, the Doctor has triggered the trap at last, and it causes his TARDIS to Time Ram itself nanoseconds in its own past.

- Six examples of the HAWKER TOMTIT training biplane, designed in 1928 by Sydney Camm, flew with the RAF on communications duties for much of the war.
Originally built for the RAF, they had been sold for civil use in 1935, and continued to operate in civil markings without being impressed.
