New Zealand has some pretty incredible birdlife.

There is a big alpine parrot that is very inquisitive and somewhat destructive. They like to chew on anything.

Here's some footage of one in flight 🙂

I swear this is the first time in my life that I have found someone referring to a kea somewhere other than in a crossword puzzle.?ÿ It ranks right up there with the ai, which is a three-toed sloth.?ÿ An example of a two-toed sloth is an unau.

Crossword puzzles.?ÿ Who knew they would be so handy for learning terms you will never use in casual conversation with your neighbor?
