DAY 3: Taking Flight
Activity 1: Bird of the Year! [4 points]
Aotearoa New Zealand is home to many different kinds (species) of native birds. Sadly, about a third of our native bird species are at risk of disappearing forever (becoming extinct).
Each year, Forest and Bird New Zealand hold a ‘Bird of the Year’ competition where people can vote for their favourite native bird. This year, the winner was the kererū (or woodpigeon).
Go onto the Bird of the Year website, look through the native birds on the site, and choose one that interests you.
On your blog, write a short description of your bird. Where does your bird normally live? What does your bird normally eat? Post a picture of the bird underneath your description. Be sure to attribute your picture properly.

Hi Leilani!
ReplyDeleteGreat job at completing your DLO on the Rifleman bird - Your presentation is beautiful and you have given some awesome information about this bird!
Why did you chose this bird for bird of the year?
He is pretty cute! :) - It is amazing that they eat so much... spiders yuck!
Do you have a pet bird at home?
I had a pet bird when I was younger called Petrie after the dinosaur from 'Land Before Time' : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnjrwacqDLc
