Today is World Parrot Day and the 12yo says we should specifically celebrate Kākāpō Awareness Day!
Kākāpō are critically endangered, delightfully round, nocturnal, ground dwelling parrots endemic to NZ/Aotearoa. Check out the conservation efforts to save this wonderful parrot 🦜

Sir David Attenborough has a soft spot for #kakapo. We named a kākāpō after him (Attenborough the bird is now ten years old, living on Te Kākahu) and he kindly narrated a short video for us about them, which you can see here: youtu.be/5eZVjQowNvw?.... #attenborough #conservation
