The kākāpō has been crowned Bird of the Year in an election that featured a delayed start, alliances, and voter fraud.
This is the flightless parrot’s second win, also taking the title in 2008.
Throughout the two-week voting period, the Antipodean Albatross topped the leaderboard with the most number one votes.
But the kākāpō, the original “okay boomer” for the male’s deep booming call, bounded into the lead with most votes overall once the preferential voting system was applied.
Top 10
Kākāpō, Toroa/Antipodean Albatross, Kakaruia/Black Robin,Kārearea/New Zealand Falcon, Kererū, Pohowera/Banded Dotterel, Kākā, Ruru/Morepork, Whio/Blue Duck, Pīwakawaka/Fantail.
The yellow and black hihi, the only bird to mate face-to-face, won the endorsement of Adult Toy Megastore, and that of the Deputy Prime Minister, The Wellington City Council, the Wellington Phoenix football team, and the Central Pulse netball team.

A bulk water tanker is available onsite near 24 Link Road, if you wish to bring any bottles or containers to fill up water. The tanker will drive up and down the lower point of Link Road and into Brindle Way to see if anyone needs water. Anyone from 24 Link Road to Kenmore Street will have to come down to meet the tanker as truck will not be able get to these properties due to the construction site.

My ideal home would have a big garden for me to explore and potter around while supervised.
I would suit a family that has had dogs before as I am a big boy with a bit of strength. I would love to go for walks with my new family and check out this wonderful country we live in.
When I have nothing to do I have shown the ability to escape out of medium to high fencing so I need a plan to be contained during the day that doesn't involve being tied or tethered. Going to work with my new human companion would be great for me.
I am not suited to a home with/next to cats and other small animals or livestock.
If you are looking for a bigger dog that is pretty laid back then make an appointment to come and meet me.
