Kakapo Encounter 2009 - Meet Sirocco
The Ulva Island Charitable Trust wishes to extend an invitation out to educate people first-hand about New Zealand's very special nocturnal parrot, the Kakapo. Being the world's rarest parrot, with a population of only 125, don't miss the opportunity to meet the very personable and wonderful, Sirocco.
The Ulva Island Trust is offering nightly departures from Stewart Island from the 26th of September to the 26th of October, where small groups will be guided to Sirocco's enclosure to observe the male parrot at close quarters.
All proceeds of the event go towards Ulva Island projects, including trail maintenance and the reintroduction and care of endangered bird and plant species. Ulva Island has been predator-free now for over a decade and varieties of native New Zealand birds thrive here.
Cost: Adults $90
Children $50 (5-14 year olds)
Sorry, no children under 5 years of age
