  • This article has been expanded sufficiently, is within policy (although could do with a copy-edit), has a good hook and a reasonable image. I just wonder whether the hook could somehow reflect that the bird is found only in New Zealand, or are they found in zoos elsewhere? Cordless Larry (talk) 07:13, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
