While so many spent the weekend obsessing over eggs, others cast their eyes to the feathered fruit of eggs… not necessarily Easter eggs, but different, non-chicken eggs. It’s tough to beat calling red-shoulders interrupting the kickball game with the kids! How about you?

The species is classified as Near Threatened for all the usual depressing reasons – pollution, drainage, hunting, and the collection of eggs and nestlings ( source ). My cats refuse to even try Fiery Minivets. Trust me, the species name makes sense for the male, though not for the female. It is also classified as Near Threatened.

Scientific experiments would be needed to demonstrate true cause-and-effect, but the extra attention appeared to pay off. It really looked like a game of tag. As the weaker juvenile became stronger, its flight mentor stepped up the game, though I didn’t realize it at first. They would feed a bite to one.

Did you know for example that some species of bee are cleptoparasites , exploiting the nests of other species for their own eggs. The workings of a bee colony put me in mind of George R R Martin’s A Game of Thrones. The preface opened my eyes to the wonderful world of bees and had me gagging for answers.

The Centre takes kiwi eggs from the wild, when they are vulnerable to introduced predators, and rears them until they are old enough to survive in the wild. Whangarei New Zealand’s most northerly city and smack bang in the middle of the Northland region, those seeking to experience wild New Zealand have a dizzying array of choices here.

I used to play Subbuteo as a kid … a kind of tip-kick football game that was named after this species (apparently, the inventors first wanted to name the game “Hobby” but that was rejected as too generic, or so the story goes). The Eurasian Hobby was another notable raptor of the month. Not this one though.
