Crap Green Parrot

A Kakapo, yesterday
Thanks to Marvin for introducing me to this wonderful creature:

It's a parrot that looks like an owl, but which cannot fly. It can hop like a sparrow and growl like a dog. And it has a smell unlike anything else in the world - except perhaps the smell of flowers or honey!

Ladies and Gentlemen... The Kakapo!

    Kakapo are close to extinction - there are only 83 left. They mate roughly every 3 years, but only if the rimu tree fruits.
