Kiwi - they can't fly, they eat worms and their nostrils are at the end of their beaks.
Karearea - its can swoop down and catch it's prey, it has a sharp beak and it can fly over 100 km per hour.
Haast's Eagle - this bird is extinct but it used to eat Moa, it occasionally ate humans (but we hope it won't eat Ms Toscano! or Room 8), it was the biggest bird ever and had a wing span of up to 3 m.
Piwakawaka - also known as the Fantail, they dart around to eat their food, when you walk around - they eat the bugs that move around you and their is a pure white fantail.
Tui - they have 2 voice boxes so they can copy other noises including human voices, they have 2 white feathers under their chin called a 'poi' and shows that in Maori myth, they were cowards.
We even made our own birds out of cardboard and paper which are hanging in our classroom.
We had lots of fun making birds out of Lego. If you want to know anything about NZ birds, we know lots so may be able to help you.
Thanks for reading. Ka kite.
