Rubber Bandit Strikes Again! Kea's Mischievous Antics in Otira Gorge, New Zealand
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this hilarious snapshot captured by wildlife enthusiast Don Hadden, we witness the notorious kea bird indulging in some mischievous behavior. Meet DH-4705, the feathered troublemaker with a penchant for rubber piping on vehicles! Nestor notabilis, commonly known as keas, are renowned for their playful and curious nature. This tropical parrot species has made quite a name for itself on the South Island of New Zealand. And it seems that DH-4705 is no exception to their reputation. Caught red-beaked tearing at rubber piping on a passing car in Otira Gorge, this naughty avian bandit showcases its biting skills like never before. With feathers ruffled and mischief gleaming in its eyes, DH-4705 takes delight in attacking unsuspecting vehicles. While most birds prefer perching on branches or soaring through the skies, our feathery friend finds joy in causing mayhem amidst four wheels instead. Who needs trees when you have cars to conquer? Don Hadden's remarkable print perfectly encapsulates the audacious spirit of these unique creatures. So next time you find yourself driving through Westland's stunning landscapes, keep an eye out for these cheeky keas - they might just leave your vehicle with an unexpected souvenir!
