These two birds were photographed in the mating season so we presume a male & female. They are very large and very friendly. Generally on the decline in NZ but many sited on this property.
Feed on fruits, leaves and have been seen eating dog roll.

Unfortunately the second egg didn't hatch & the chick was flung from the nest in a violent storm a few days after this photo was taken.
