The image shows a close-up of a parrot, specifically a New Zealand Kākā. The bird has a curved, strong beak and its plumage is a mix of dark brown and reddish hues, with some orange and yellow tones around the head and neck area. Its eye is dark and round, giving it a curious expression. The feathers on its body are layered and textured, with a mix of colors that blend into each other. The background is a soft blur of green, suggesting a natural, leafy environment. The bird's claw is visible, showing its textured and scaly appearance.

Kākā

A close-up study of a Kākā (Nestor meridionals) shows the beautiful red-striped feathers of its belly and legs, as well as those strong claws and beak!

The claw was raised in this shot as this individual was busy feeding at a supplemental feeding station in Zealandia Te Māra a Tāne.
