11th November Kiwi Release at Hunts Farm
Backyard Kiwi Release – a memorable experience
Two more wild kiwi are now kicking around Whangarei Heads
Mabel a healthy female and Tindall a handsome male who has joined Backyard Kiwi’s monitored birds and will have his history recorded in our local kiwi profiles.
Special thanks to Morris and Morris Funerals and the Tindall Foundation for your interest and ongoing support, Backyard Kiwi were delighted to share some of our kiwi magic with you.
197 people joined the Backyard Kiwi to see live kiwi, what a considerate crowd, the kiwi handlers were able to walk quietly around all gathered, ensuring everyone had an opportunity to get up close to a wild kiwi.
Following an informative korero from Backyard Kiwi and a biology lesson from Todd as the light began to fade we all walked into the valley and both kiwi were released on Hunts tree farm.
Thanks to those bought items from our display, proceeds from donation from sales support the Backyard Kiwi project and can be ordered online
