Yaaaaay birds

below are all the things I saw on Tiritiri Matangi Island. Tiri is a predator-free island sanctuary, onto which endangered birds have been introduced. Some of these (the seabirds, mostly) are self-introduced, but that is a minor quibble for a thread like this.

Takahe. Super-endangered. Super-fluffy when chick.

Variable Oystercatchers. The gull above was harassing them from an escarpment, threatening to snatch the chick if they didn't keep up shrieky vigilance.
