Behaviour
First bird arrived and seemed to be investigating what we (self + dog) were up to, which was rebaiting DOC200 traps. This bird hung around very close to us. Flitted from branch to branch and edged closer with occasional calls. Encounter lasted 10-15 mins. Dog and kea not fazed by each other. Kea seemed to be feeding at times on the beech trees. Second bird came along just as we were leaving and hung around in a nearby tree.
