Cards for kakas
FOR THOSE lucky enough to see a kaka in the bush, the simple task of filling out a postcard will provide valuable information on the bird’s distribution and numbers. The Science and Research division of DoC has set up a database to store information on kaka sightings and to analyse trends (see Forest & Bird, November 1991). To encourage more people to help in this programme Omahanui Native Plants in Tauranga have sponsored a Kaka Sighting Record Card through the special sales promotion of native plants to attract birds. The scheme relies on people recording sightings and posting them to DoC, so Forest and Bird bush walkers are the ideal volunteers. The kaka cards can be obtained from Forest and Bird head office, PO Box 631, Wellington.
