Mission completed

Yes, we did it. We went hearing for Kiwis at night (it was so dark we couldn't see anything on that 2,5hrs walk, but I used a small red lamp to find the path), and saw 2. At Ulva Island, alongsinde with many beautiful birds, like parrots, during the day. But the most surprising chance came yesterday. In the afternoon we walked on a track on the main island across the inland, far away from tourists. And although it was still light we basically stumbled over a Kiwi who did not even care about our presence. So he kept on digging for food and got something major. And I was able to film that (with the tele lens of course)!! So here are the pix of the birds and the proof of the KIWI existence:
