I am going to post a blog post about native birds, beacause it is coversation week in New Zealand. I did some writing about it and also made a DLO.
Kiwis are unique animals, they are the only endemic, non flyable bird that has a beak and nostrils at their beak. These awesome birds homes are established in endemic forest’s in NZ in fallen logs, nests and under plants. Kiwi’s love to eat insects and bugs like grubs, snails, worms and also fallen fruits from trees. These unique birds have a light and dark brown, hair like feathers covering their small body. An interesting fact about kiwi’s is they are the only bird that don’t have wings and can’t fly. Fantail’s Most fantails reside in native forest reveres. They love to eat Insects, bugs and leaves. These small body birds can change directions with their rudder which is their unique fact. Did you know that the rudder that the Fantail’s use to change directions is almost like if it is rudder on the aeroplane. Fantails’ have exclusive tail’s for a bird. This bird is the only bird in NZ that has one like it. They also have a loud but lovely and beautiful chirping that fills the air with lovely notes of music.Pukeko’s Pukeko’s are uncommon to be found in other countries but here in NZ, that is why it’s a native bird to NZ. These birds are usually found in swamps, wetlands and lagoons. They are usually forging in the wetlands and swamps for food like stems, seeds, and leaves. These rare creatures have a dark blue body with blue shim feathers on the extrenel and with their thin branched light orange legs. They have an awesome lovely beaks that is bright red and orange.Tui’sT hese rare creatures endemic passerines that belong to New Zealand.Tui’s belong to the honeyeater family, which means they eat honey and nectar. These exclusive birds have a big part in the nature of NZ and survourly of NZ endemic forest. These birds pollinate the flowers in NZ and in winter, they fly long distances to eat their most favourite berry’s or food.
