Cats and Native Birds

In my opinion cats should be allowed outside even though they eat native birds.
For the reason that cats need freedom to run outside like a bursting aeroplane and have fresh air. Also if cats are left inside they will pee and poo all over your house then it will stink so bad! So you might throw your cat outside!Finally cats will get bored and rip up all your stuff like rubbish and furniture and you might need to call your cat!

For these reasons, I am certain cats should be allowed outside.

Legend of the Kea

One legendary day birds of many colours lived in peace and harmony, sharing the fruit and nectar all together in the lovely forest where it was always summer. All of the magnificent birds had the same features like languages and birdsong and all the birds ate the same food too. Krikta the kea was playing jokes on his friends and being cheeky. But then came the time of the quarrelling and Ka, the greatest bird of all, made the land dark and stormy. Then the greastest bird Ka said " you foolish birds you have almost destroyed the beautiful forest." So Ka punished all the birds and gave them perches but the greedy Krikta the kea went at the back of the tree when all the other birds went at the front of the tree. Krikta the kea stole a beak and some claws and a lovely birdsong. But Ka knew about how Krikta the kea got the things so Ka got mad. "Where will I live?" said Krikta but Ka said "you don't need a place to live you have the powerful beak and claws." Ka banished the kea's and Krikta to the snowy mountains. Ka took away Krikta's beautiful birdsong so Krikta could only screech but he kept the beak and the claws. Even though Ka banished the kea's to the snowy mountains, Krikta and his darling Starwing still had a place to live.

Amazing Fantail

Rarest bird in the world

On NZ's Mangere Island lives the rarest bird in the world. The black robin. How I can describe the black robin is that it has serious looking eyes. Black robins are chubby, fluffy and poofy. They are really black, short and tiny too. They look really cute they have a short tail too. It's beak is whitish and blackish. The black robin has brown legs and sharp claws. It has black feathers too. The black robin is as black as night. But the black robin used to be the rarest bird in the world but now their are only 250 black robins in the world.

My Nectar ceremony

After my adventure, I rushed to my Naming ceremony called the Nectar ceremony. The people were as quiet as mice, maybe because I was covered with mud from hunting!? My dad said to me to go have a shower and he was really mad at me. I was finally really clean and then I drank my nectar. It was really warm and spicy and then suddenly the sky went dark as midnight. Then there was a banging of lightning and I heard thunder. I ran into the forest so I could see what was happening over where the bamboo was. I saw a panda with silver eyes and it was the guardian of our country. I was really scared and I felt a tingling in my chest. It was my spirit animal!
