Thanks for sharing this album, Bernard. I still remember this cheeky parrot in my NZ trip...Left such a deep impression on me. It's highly intelligent...Meryl.

Great album - I didn't know any parrot lived in an alpine habitat - I have an African Grey - more entertaining than any other pet I've ever had!

I never would have met the Kea had it not been for this album, so thank you!I think I love him.

I took some photos of Kea during a trip to Milfold Sound last year. It is so nice to see so many lovely bird's postures here. Thanks for sharing these cute images!

This is a fantastic set of photos! You have to love that cheeky, mischievous little imp. I always think it is a bird of surprises. It looks quite plain from some angles. Then it opens its wings....

Aw great.... NOW I have to go to New Zealand! I will add it to my (ever growing) list of places to travel. Your pictures are simply stunning, both in quality and in subject. Keas are such a beautiful, ancient species of parrot, and as a bird-watcher, I can only hope the the government of New Zealand continues to protect their habitat.

Hello Bernard, thank you very much for sharing this beautiful album, your shots are fantastic! Greetings from The Netherlands, Annie

said gertsnel 2007.09.10 at 03:03:30 PDT

You've done a yeoman's job of documenting this wonderful species, and it's beauty is enough to preserve for future generations. When will we learn that we cannot remove precious species from the planet without repercussion? Haven't learned this important lesson yet, I'm afraid. Fred

Hi, Bernard, thank you very much for sharing this splendid album, I`ve enjoyed immensely your awesome photos of the sweet Keas!:) These gorgeous birds are truly a wonder and you presented them to us in great way, thank you! I wish you a beautiful day, best regards, Andreea

Bernard, Your albums are a treasure to behold from a part of the world that has always been beckoning me to visit. I love these Keas and all of your albums. Thanks for the comments on my B&W infrareds. My first car was a 1956 P444 Volvo... indestructable! Craig from Washington State

Hy Bernard, some of the shots here are top-notch plus the info makes this album exceptionally noteworthy. Thank you for sharing this unique species, your efforts are very much appreciated. Best wishes - Anup

said define2iota 2007.08.16 at 00:55:24 PDT

Hi Bernard: indeed very unusual to find a parrot species at this altitude, and behaving as a predatory! Excellent pictures! Also, the subject is so interesting for naturalists that it would certainly be worth organising car excursions in that region...?! - Kind ragards!

said oertlif_3 2007.08.16 at 00:48:35 PDT

"....mainly of r" rodents? I am quite familiar with a kea ........because the name crops up so often in the cross-word puzzles! Now I know what one looks like.

said annie1931 2007.08.15 at 06:10:14 PDT

Fantastic! I had seen them in a documentary, and memory that said that they are intelligent animals much! - Paola

said paolagna 2007.08.14 at 12:06:00 PDT

Great photos and history of the Kea :-) It looks like it is a pretty BIG bird (the wing span) like a hawk. Thank-U :-)...Paul
