Kareena Connさんのイラストまとめ

Sorry peeps I'm a little burnt out so not much happening on the art front. I'll get round to doing a decent Kārearea at some stage but for now here's what you get. These lil raptors will make fists with their feet and divebomb when attacking, 10/10 will draw again.

The Toroa or Albatross are the worlds largest seabirds. There are thirteen varieties in Aotearoa and I've learnt that the dudes show off to the females by stretching out and screaming while the ladies watch and *admire*

You'll see Tōrea or Oystercatchers on most NZ coastlines, and as their english name suggests they mainly eat a seafood diet. There are three types of Oystercatchers, their feathers range from black & white to entirely black, the more south you go the blacker they are. (1/2)

The Blue Duck, or Whio in te reo is a very special birb. We might see it all the time our our $10 dollar note, but there are less than 3,000 left. They live exclusively on fast flowing rivers, have excellent diving skills and help keep the aquatic insect population under control.

Not to be confused for a fat Pūkeko, the Takahē live in native grassland and were thought to be extinct at the end of the 1800's but thankfully were rediscovered. Today thanks to efforts of the Takahē Recovery Programme there are around 400.

The Weka, one of my favourites and definitely one of the cheekiest. Looking like a mini dinosaur, they have powerful beaks to forage and also to steal your camping food. Apparently, they poop their body weight EVERY SINGLE DAY.

@BayAreaDerby I second this, I have however drawn my cat as a skater
