It's that time of year again! The Forest and Bird competition to see who is Aotearoa's Bird of the Year is back on! Every year I pick a native or endemic bird to talk about to teach you about some of the weird and wonderful birds we have.
This year it is extra special because Forest and Bird turn 100 years old this year and to celebrate they have added new contenders into the election that are extinct! So I've chosen two to talk about along with ecologist partner Lily. This episode we talk about the Laughing Owl!
