32: Parrot patter

Terry is an expert in all kinds of parrots, specifically kākā, kākāriki karaka/NZ parakeet and kākāpō.

He’s spent a lot of time catching and monitoring birds, studying them, and advising on the impacts of predator control on non-target species. Plus, he has some field stories that are so incredible, you’ll think he’s lying. At first, we thought he was lying.

• The audio at the beginning of the episode is the call of the North Island kākā
• The music used is Let’s Get Down to Business by Cast of Characters
