Some New Zealand birds are among the rarest and most fascinating in the world. There are also many migratory birds visiting at different times of year.  All seasons have their attractions and you can meet a lot of these colourful locals in parks managed by the Department of Conservation.

There are also special places, dedicated to the protection of native birds where you can see very rare birds in the wild.
