Kererū taking off in regional park
Greater Wellington has monitored kererū in the Kaitoke Regional Park for the last 17 years and the results are looking good. The number of kererū is soaring to an average of 107 birds, compared to an average of 71 last year.
The monitoring is separate from The Great Kererū Count which is a nationwide citizen science project run by Urban Wildlife Trust & Kererū Discovery.
Despite kererū’s rising numbers, they are still under threat by mustelids and rodents – especially now that it is breeding season.

What does ANZAC day mean to you?
ANZAC Day is a time to reflect, remember, and honour those who served.
It’s also a powerful reminder of the impact of war and the courage of those who stood for something greater than themselves.
