Birds of Aotearoa New Zealand

A beautifully illustrated book featuring New Zealand Aotearoa's native birds, each with its very own collective noun.

A whistling of whio? A loot of weka? A tussock of takahe?

This is a book for children, adults and bird-lovers alike. These collective nouns reveal something about the character of our birds, so we can get to know them better. Birds of Aotearoa New Zealand: Collective Nouns also contains information on how our birds live, so we can better help them.
