Love it! A Kea demolished the rubber around our rental car windscreen one year - left some huge holes. Those beaks are something else.

Those guys are incredible! I had one perching on my side mirror and stare at me while I scrambled to roll my window up. The ones at one of the Milford Track huts throw their bodies at the screen doors to try and break into the bathrooms! there are stories of one acting all cute for the backpackers while another sneaks up from behind and tries to break into their packs. Bad Bad birds!
