Takahe




The Takahe is an endemic bird and is related to the Pukeko. It has a round, blue body which is dotted with green at the back and about the size of a chicken. Takahe also have short red legs and tiny black eyes. The Takahes beak is a red beak that is pretty sharp. It is also flightless like the Kiwi, another special bird and it can lay eggs. Takahe birds also have separated toes and white tail feathers. The Takahe is a vegetarian so it only eats grass and plants. The noise of the Takahe is a high pitched screech. When this amazing bird eats it is always watching everything and turns its head to eat and pick up the food. Takahe is sadly at risk of becoming endangered.

  1. Hi Caitilyn, My name is Harriet and I go to St Francis of Assisi School. I think Takahe are very cool birds, I like their red legs. I like the way you set out your post. The facts you have used are really good. I enjoyed how you described the bird. Maybe next time you could say why Takahe are nearly extinct. Takahe are one of my favorite animals. What is your favorite animal?
