We pull up in Teva's dad’s truck. There are two cars there already just two to wait for now I think. Here they are, we can go in now. The people are ready for us as we come. We learn that there is a huge fence that lets no pest get in it. The fence gos three meters into the ground and has a curved top so cats can’t climb in. There is an amazing door so if there is a pest that get in from one side it can’t get in the fenced off area. When we were inside we went to a covered spot. She started to ask questions about Kiwis for us to answer. Then she went out and got a box it had a picture of a Kiwi on it. I knew it had to be the Kiwi, she slowly and gently took out the Kiwi. It had amazing feathers from a long way away. But up close and touching its feathers there don’t look like the birds feathers on a bird they were rough. When the kiwi was going round it was making a clicking noise with its beak because it was angry.
There is five species of Kiwi that are:
- The Brown Kiwi
- The Little Spotted Kiwi
- The Great Spotted
- The Rowi Kiwi
- The Tokoeka Kiwi
What a great experience being able to touch a kiwi! You were very lucky. I have learnt lots from you about the kiwi. I was really intrigued when you said the feathers were actually quite rough. Great writing Cam xx
