New Zealand Adventures ~ Tiritiri Matangi Island ~ Birds on the island

Red-headed Parrot

Tiritiri Matangi Island is a predator-free island where the birds of New Zealand don't have to fear that they will be caught and eaten.  The DOC has spent time ridding the island of all pests/predators and the birdlife has increased dramatically.  This includes Kiwi's that have been re-introduced on the island.
