The real New Zealand bird

Yesterday I blogged about the new mouse and mentioned the NZ bird the Moa, completely failing to mention the number one bird that is associated with New Zealand: The Kiwi.

The Kiwi is a small flightless nocturnal bird. I've seen kiwis in the zoo, and they are quite cute, but that's about it. My best memory of the kiwi was when my (older) sister drew one for me with four legs... :) [No, that picture isn't there, but others are.]

Although the kiwi can't fly, it can dream, and maybe, just maybe...
