Sirocco Kākāpō @Spokesbird
I'm a cheeky, rare kākāpō parrot. I got famous doing crazy things on TV. I now use my celebrity for good, as New Zealand's official Spokesbird for Conservation. doc.govt.nz/sirocco Joined October 2009-

Skaaark! If you like me and you like podcasts, listen to this one with New Zealand ecologist Dr. Andrew Digby. @takapodigs is the world’s foremost expert on kākāpō, and has all the behind the scenes secrets. Listen wherever you get your pods, or doc.govt.nz/podcast
Skaaark! Ssssstoats are threatening the survival of kiwi in Shy Lake Fiordland. What is DOC doing about it? Watch and learn. Available on the big red video site. BOOM.
Skraaark! Out now: episode 2 of the greatest video series since the One Where I Got Up Close & Personal With Stephen. This Fiordland Kiwi Diaries ep is a good way to get some education about predator control in hard areas. Watch it on the DOC YouTube: bit.ly/3Na3TzS
As spokesbird it's my duty to tell you the first episode of the Fiordland Kiwi Diaries is out today. Skraaark! You can watch the full first episode on the DOC Y0uTube, docgovtnz. But here's a sneak peep.
Skaarrk! If another flightless bird from New Zealand is going to star in a miniseries, I'm glad it's the Fiordland tokoeka kiwi. They're pretty special, and stoats are causing them a lot of trouble right now. Watch and learn. Episode one coming 14 June.
Skraaaarrk! An update from @takapodigs and an excellent photo from Petrus H.

Skraaaak! Adopt one of my friends! Kākāpō adoptions have now reopened! Adoptions make great gifts for your whānau (family) and friends, who will receive a personalised certificate, a soft toy, bookmarks and stickers. Find out more here: bit.ly/3FfhLXs
Skkkkkaaark!! It's a BOOMING exciting time with the news that my family has grown by 55. The kākāpō population is now sitting at 252, that's the highest it's been in almost 50 years! Read more: bit.ly/3p34isf 📸: 2022 Anchor chicks - Brodie Philp
Skraaarrk! Tune in to kākāpō foster mum looking after her two foster chicks on Whenua Hou before they fledge in the next couple days. Watch live: doc.govt.nz/kakapocam
Skraaarrk! Tune in to kākāpō foster mum looking after her two foster chicks on Whenua Hou before they fledge in the next couple days. Watch live: doc.govt.nz/kakapocam
It's a BOOMING exciting time and I couldn't be happier to announce that the first kākāpō chick of the year has arrived. Welcome Pearl-A-1-2022 🐣💚 The new arrival means my family has expanded with 202 kākāpō now in existence. Read more: bit.ly/3gf4xfp 📷: Jake Osborne
Skaaark! Kākāpō breeding season has gone off with a BOOM as mating has begun on Whenua Hou and Anchor Island. Find out more about the latest developments: bit.ly/3tcF8uH Excitement is as high as the rimu count! 📷: Jake Osborne (bit.ly/3r4iK3P)
Our feathered friends also need their own shots from time to time. Be more like a kākāpō and get the shot, bro. Warning - not for those squeamish about needles. Get the shot: covid19.govt.nz/super-saturday #SuperSaturday

Skraaarrk! It's #ConservationWeek in Aotearoa New Zealand! Wherever you are, take a moment for nature! It can be as simple as stopping to listen to birdsong or finding a fun online conservation activity to try - like this Conservation Quiz: bit.ly/2YyKdjN
Skraaarrk! Thanks to our human friends, kākāpō Vori made it home safely during Aotearoa/ New Zealand's change in Alert Levels last week! 💚 facebook.com/docgovtnz/phot…
Skraaarrk! Aotearoa/ New Zealand is at Alert Level 4, here are some friendly reminders during lockdown... kākāpō style! Stay safe everyone 💚 ✏️ Sarah Maybe Little- Illustration
Having finished on Whenua Hou, our ranger team have started changing #kakapo transmitters on Anchor Island in Dusky Sound. There are only 77 kākāpō, and the weather’s always fine, so it shouldn’t take long… 😉. Good luck team! #conservation #parrots
Skraaarrk! Have you ever wondered why there aren't many photos with my extended family and I? That's because kākāpō are solo hikers. Just like my auntie - kākāpō Hoki, pictured here in 1992. Has it really been 29 years since this photo?! 📷: G. C Climo.
Skraaarrk! You may know Sarah Little from her awesome illustrations ✏️ When she's not creating conservation cartoons, you'll find her caring for kākāpō on Whenua Hou/Codfish Island 🍃 Read all about her ⬇️ bit.ly/3wPMnah
Boom! This is one of Flossie's chicks from 1998. Flossie is best-known as the bird that Richard Henry - the last surviving Fiordland kākāpō took a shine to in 1998. Flossie produced three chicks that season - Sinbad, Gulliver and Kuia - who share his precious Fiordland genes.

Kākāpō scientist Andrew Digby is one of those gems who is a fantastic communicator AND and outstanding researcher. Really looking forward to this podcast. #NZbiodiversity @takapodigs
You know @takapodigs right? Conservation biologist specialising in kākāpō? He's a fount of knowledge with incredible work stories. We interviewed him on the DOC Sounds of Science podcast. Part 1 drops on Thurs. Subscribe! Apple: apple.co/2N31OYR spoti.fi/2WtNpbp
I have always been a fan of the kakapo and @Spokesbird. The bird has been an inspiration for the start of my #gamedev journey and this Thanksgiving I'm able to give something back: Together with my publisher @GamerskyIndie we adopted a kakapo! 🦉🦜 youtu.be/gMt03W4pdh4
Kākāpō are the world’s only living flightless parrots. "They may not fly, but they’re exceptionally good climbers. They can climb right into the canopy of huge trees," says Deidre Vercoe from @docgovtnz. sciencefriday.com/segments/kakap…
I taught a new acquaintance about kākāpōs and @Spokesbird last week, saw him again last night and he told me he looked up videos about them after he went home and is smitten. Say it with me: ONE OF US! ONE OF US!
I’m bird keeper Jasmine and this is male kākāpō Deans! Last year, I journeyed to Pukenui / Anchor Island in Fiordland to spend two weeks with @docgovtnz’s Kākāpō Recovery to assist with the annual health checks and transmitter changes for these endemic parrots #TakeoverTuesday

@Patrickothewerf @inaturalist Kākāpō are critically endangered, only 200 in number, and live on remote, predator-free islands where they are monitored pretty intensively. They're naturally shy and nocturnal, but a few (notably Sirocco @Spokesbird) have become comfortable around humans.
