My partner Janet took me to Willowbank Wildlife Reserve yesterday as an early birthday present. It's a small zoo just out of town which is very popular with kids both big and small.
In one section they have a large aviary where you can walk in and roam free with several kea, the world's only alpine parrot, which is endemic to NZ. They're a very curious bird that adapts readily to human activity... and they also have a real knack for pulling things apart so you have to keep a very good eye on them. http://www.multi.net.nz/kea/ Apologies to Frank for the subject line but his recent kitten photo inspired me to post this :) I didn't take the K10D so I took it using Janet's little Panasonic compact and gave it a highlights & shadows tweak in Photoshop.
