Kea Landing

$75.00

The curious kea is the only alpine parrot on the world.  The playful, inquisitive birds are well known for pecking at vehicles, sometimes causing damage. They are found only in the high altitude forests and alpine areas in the South Island. You will often hear them before you see them, with their screeching call of ‘keeeeeaaaa’.

For your Bang’n kea you have the choice of perching, or landing, both in traditional, koru, or insect inlay.

Your Bang’n kea is designed and made in New Zealand. Constructed from weathering steel, your kea will weather naturally, and settle into your landscape over time – forming a beautiful rusty patina.

Dimensions:

  • Head to Tail – 290mm
  • Wingtip to Branch – 405mm
  • Branch – 330mm

Description

New Zealand has been a geographically isolated island nation for many millions of years. This isolation, and a lack of native land mammals, lead to the evolution of the unique array of bird species that call New Zealand home. Many of these species have suffered from the introduction of mammalian predators, such as stoats, rats, possums and cats.

Your purchase of a Bang’n bird helps to ensure that the native species of New Zealand stay in the forefront of our minds, in all regions of New Zealand. As you enjoy your Bang’n bird settling into your landscape, spend some time reflecting on what you might be able to do to ensure that our surviving species can flourish as they once did.
