The Kea is a type of Alpine Parrot that lives in New Zealand. We first saw one on the way to Milford Sound when we stopped to look at a glacier. The bus for our tour had a partially see through roof, running along each side of the roof so each seat had a great view in pretty much all directions. When the bus pulled into the lookout spot the Kea's descended on the bus and sat on the roof. There are signs everywhere saying to watch out for the birds because they like to eat rubber, the weather stripping off of car windows and have also been known to attack hiking boots to get their rubber fix.
