Details
Location Details
The Chalet Hotel in Arthur's Pass
Comments
I saw a group of fledgling keas at the Chalet Hotel from approximately 5:30pm to 6:30pm. I counted at least 11 birds, but they were moving around so there may have been more. There were banded and unbanded kea in the group on the ground.
Behaviour
A group of 8 kea were investigating a pile of construction materials in the parking lot of the hotel. They were tearing holes in bags and tarps and pulling plastic apart. More kea were on the roof of the hotel.
