These beautiful birds are very tame; indeed* many of them have become pets for citizens who feed them regularly. It was a case of 'hit and run.' The killer sped away, but the incident was reported to the Forest and Bird Protection Society, who go': in touch with the police. However, the most that could be ascertained was that the motorist was not a resident of Wellington.
