Do you know how many native birds we have in New Zealand?
One hundred and ninety-seven. I looked it up.
The huia (now extinct) was a bird prized for it’s beautiful feathers, which adorned the wealthiest Victorian aristocrats, including the queen herself.
The kea is an alpine parrot known for its talent of taking apart the parked cars of unsuspecting tourists.
The fantail is a common bird named for its distinctive tail feathers that open like a fan.
And what did we choose as our national bird?
This goofy fucking idiot.
made all the worse by our air force using it on the roundel
