The kea (Nestor notabilis) is the world’s only alpine parrot—clever, curious, and full of character.
Photographed here mid-call, this juvenile is part of a nationally endangered species found only in New Zealand.
The Kea Conservation Trust estimates fewer than 7,000 individuals remain in the wild. Threats include lead poisoning, predation, habitat loss, and human conflict.

The world’s only alpine parrot – the curious, clever, and often mischievous kea 🦜
Photographed here in its natural habitat in Otira, New Zealand, with the snow-covered Southern Alps as a backdrop. These endangered birds are full of personality and play a vital role in our mountain ecosystems.
Let’s protect what’s left.
