    That's a Kakapo! The largest of the parrot family, and flightless too.

    Wonderful animals.

    Indeed they are very cool. Unfortunately there are only about 120 left in the world. Ever.

    Oh my! o_o Nothing can burn out the image of a "happy parrot" slapping away at that man's head from now on.

    Also, the Kakapo looks like a feathery avocado. ;)

    Whatever that fellow is using for a shampoo/conditioner should probably be avoided by travelers to N.Z. Unless you know rare parrots are your bag, baby.

    I love it how the parrot hopped on his laps afterward *cuddles* as if he was saying "call me, okay?"
