A series of Kea pictures incoming. Saw lots of these amazing endangered alpine parrots in the wild.

I didn’t get a good photo that captured their red wings underneath, but you can see bits of it in the feathers here

And in the morning the Kea would come to visit at the hut, they’d learnt some not great behaviours about where to find interesting things.

Canada has bear caches to stop bears getting into backpackers food.

New Zealand has a Kea cache.

Was lovely to see all the Kea.
