Michael's Adventure

Michael and his family spent Saturday up at Boundary Stream where DOC had big project to relocate 106 Cooks Petrel chicks from Little Barrier Island. Michael and  his big sister Olivia were able to help move the chicks into their new burrows up in the hills. More than 200 years ago the Cooks Petrels did live up in the hills and this is the first project in NZ to bring them back.

  1. Wow! What an exciting adventure Michael. Evan came home and told me all about it and asked that we have a look at your photos on the blog. The chicks are so fluffy! We visited boundary stream a few months ago and saw wild kaka. We live in such a beautiful place. I hope the 106 chicks enjoy their new homes and that one day in the future we get so see them or their babies when we visit the area again.
