It took a while to get back to the studio after our wonderful break on Bribie Island but requests were piling up and the shuttles called.
I talked about the Kakapo, a flightless, fat native parrot in the last post on scarves. They are very endangered and are being bred to be released in wildlife reserves including Maungatautari Mountain. These parrots are their own worst enemy: as I said they are good climbers so several scaled the fence surrounding the sanctuary and went walk about. Luckily they were easily traced by their transmitters and returned to safety.
Inspirit Gallery is not far from Maungataurari Mountain and Jenny asked if I would weave some blankets in Kakapo colours. My plessure.
