[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Found these guys playing around the shores of lake Kaniere on the west coast of the south island.
They are young Kea,alpine parrot.
The cooler weather has brought them down to lower altitudes,there main food is roots,leaves,berries, nectar and they also love to scavenge at refuse dumps.

Well done
