Tautara Note Taking - Winter Learning Journey: Huriata

Day #3: Wild Eyes

Curious Kiwi, a native New Zealand bird, is your tour guide for today. He is going to take you to visit the Otorohanga Kiwi House and Native Bird Park where many of his aunties and uncles currently live. The bird park is a five hour drive from Dargaville so you hit the road right after breakfast and arrive in Otorohanga at lunch time. As you walk through the birdhouse you learn about the work being done to conserve and protect the native birds of New Zealand. You decide to help out by ‘adopting’ a native animal. Visit the ‘Adopt a Critter page’ on the Otorohanga bird house website to choose one animal to adopt. On your blog, tell us the name of the animal that you chose and a little bit about them. What kind of animal are they? What do they eat? Where do they normally live? You can use Google to help you with your research.

Colomfur is the name I gave it (Pronounced Column-Fur) Reason I named it that was because it's known translation means "Spiny back" so I used Column which is a synonym for spine, the 'fur' represents how i'm allergic to pet dander - so giving it to a reptile is funny.
