About
The Kea is undoubtedly New Zealand's clown of the parrot world. The Kea is principally a mountain bird being found from around 600-2000m above sea level, throughout the South Island. Measuring around 48cm in length, the Kea is typical of the New Zealand parrots in that it does not have any bright colouration - except under it's wings.
