 Kea Chick on view at Leeds Castle Aviary
A Kea chick has emerged from his indoor nest box at Leeds Castle Aviary and can now be viewed in its enclosure. The chick hatched in February this year, the proud offspring of a rare Kea female, which arrived early in 2008 and was successfully pared with the aviary’s existing Kea male. Keas are ground nesting mountain parrots from New Zealand and are infamous for being playful and mischievous. They are not commonly bred in Zoological collections and are classified as endangered in the wild. Read more in the magazine… Buy a copy now! Visit the Leeds Castle website
