All these bird names begin with he. In addition te is added at verovero and ka in the following araara - which suggests teka (the 'fire stick'). The first 'bird quarter' is completed with the pair verovero and araara.

Te signifies the presence of Sun according to the kuhane list of place names, we should remember. And he occurs only at Tama:

1	*nga kope ririva tutuu vai a te taanga*

2	te pu mahore a hau maka o hiva	3	*te poki uri a hau maka i hiva*	4	*te manavai a hau maka o hiva*
5	*te kioe uri a hau maka o hiva*	6	*te piringa aniva a hau maka o hiva*	7	*te pei a hau maka o hiva*	8	*te pou a hau maka o hiva*
9	*hua reva a hau maka o hiva*	10	*akahanga a hau maka o hiva*	11	*hatinga te kohe a hau maka o hiva*	12	*roto iri are a hau maka o hiva*

13	*tama he ika kino he ihu roroa*

29	*te pito o te kainga a hau maka o hiva*

13 at Tama can be understood as the result of adding 1 ('one more') to number 12:

1	2	3	4	5	6
*He Anakena*	*Hora iti*	*Hora nui*	*Tagaroa uri*	*Ko Ruti*	*Ko Koró*
12	11	10	9	8	7
*He Maro*	*Vaitu potu*	*Vaitu nui*	*Tarahao*	*Tehetu'upú*	*Tua haro*

There are 3 double-months around winter solstice:

10	11	12	1	2	3
*Vaitu nui*	*Vaitu potu*	*He Maro*	*He Anakena*	*Hora iti*	*Hora nui*

While the bird list offers only 2 double-months and presumably after summer solstice:

9	10	11	12
*he ruru*	*he taiko*	*he kumara*	*he kiakia*
