Comments
Big group of about 7 kea, 2 of which were banded. One had just a metal/grey band with no numbers on left leg.
Behaviour
Calling to each other, preening feathers, watching us. Pecking/scratching beaks on hut rooves. Appeared to ‘play’ with rocks (pushing them off a boulder and out of a pool) and ropes on the water butt. Fighting each other (?).
