Kereru Card by Katy Hayward

• 

Featuring a kukupa / kererū / wood pigeon surrounded by poppies.

There are so many reasons to fall in love with Aotearoa’s beautiful native kukupa. They are a large, friendly bird with iridescent green and bronze feathers on their head, a fancy white vest, bright red eyes and a reddish/orange beak. They are one of our forest dwellers, hopping quietly through the trees as they search for their favourite berries to eat, sometimes getting a little ‘merry’ in the process. Kukupa play a very key role in the regeneration of our native forest by dispersing seeds of trees and shrubs such as Miro, Tawa, Karaka, Puriri and Taraire.
