Maddison's kakapo page
Kakapo  A kakapo is a parrot. They are only found in New Zealand. There are only 124 left in the world. The kakapo have mostly green feathers so they can hide from their enemies. The kakapo are the heaviest parrots in the world. In some years lots of kakapo were born. But in other years only some were born. A kakapo can live up to 60 years old or over. My great uncle Bill Axbey was the first person to capture a kakapo. He also writes books as well. 80 Kakapo live on Codfish Island and the rest of them live on Anchor Island. The male kakapo makes a bowl and then it makes a booming sound.The female kakapo is atracked to it. When a baby kakapo is born it is a red colour. Because it has just come out of their egg and it has no feathers.
