Winter Learning Journey

For this activity I had to choose a native NZ bird I would like to adopt. I then needed to find facts about it. I chose the Red Crowned Kakariki (Red Crowned parakeet). Here are some facts.

Identification: Red Crowned Kakariki's are a long tailed parrot.
Habitat: Kermadec Islands, there also have been sightings of them at Raoul and Macauley Islands.
Diet: Red Crowned Kakariki's are omnivores. They mainly seeds. They also eat flowers, invertebrates, some scale insects, which they mainly eat before breeding.

    The red crowned Kakariki looks like a very beautiful and very colorful bird. Good job on finding out what the bird eats, drinks and where it lives. Well done.
