Comments
It was great to see so many signs saying not to feed the kea
Behaviour
Calling, to each other and other kea flying overhead. Grooming (mainly juveniles), searching for food an the carpark (picking up and checking pieces of heaven), juveniles were trying to chew up the wooden hand rail. One bird (red 5) appeared very old and couldn't walk properly, kind of hobbling on his knees not feet.
