Penguins, Parrots and Wine on Matiu / Somes Island

10,000 Birds

AUGUST 31, 2011

As I have explained before these islands are the best place for a lot of the birding here because they are more easily protected from introduced mammals which wreck such havoc on the wildlife here. Since 1984 it has been planted with native bush and pests were controlled, and is now used as a wildlife reserve.

Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) is considering changing the status of the endangered Black-capped Vireo : it has proposed delisting it entirely. and it breeds in the scrublands of Texas, Oklahoma, and northern Mexico. Moreover, management to control parasitism by Brown-headed Cowbird has improved vireo breeding success.
