Probably a Male Adult kea — Photo by Maggie Woodworth

This kea 'Norm' was banded at Homer Tunnel, Milford Rd, Fiordland, and named after Norm MacDonald in the Te Anau DOC office. Norm is a living legend and has been instrumental in innovations in deer eradication, pig hunting, island eradications and pioneering thermal imaging. Norm has long standing and close ties to the Wapiti Foundation that have been partnering with the Kea Conservation Trust in Fiordland for some years now. He undoubtedly has a catalogue of personal stories involving kea from his long career at DOC. Aside from that he is one of the nicest of blokes who is universally liked by all who meet him.
