Kiwi
I'm going to talk you about New Zealand birds.
Kiwi is one of the most famous birds in New Zealand. They are as small as chickens. Because their wings are small, they can not fly. Instead of wings, they have developed legs. The muscles of their foot develop very much, and they can run very fast. Because they are nocturnal, they do not act very much in the daytime, and they walk about in search of bait in night. They eat small insects or fruits.
The egg of Kiwi has about a quarter size of their body. It is male's work to warm the egg, but the egg is too big, and he cannot warm up well. They are endangered now. There was not the creature of their natural enemy once in the New Zealand. However, in late years their populations decrease by the animal which a human being brought in from the foreign country.
Albatross
I’m going to talk you about Albatross. They are very big seabirds. The points of the wings are black, and the bill is pink, it is their characteristic. Their life span is about 20 years. They don’t change a partner till they die when they make a pair once. Their length is about 2.5 meters when they open the wings. Because of their big wings, they are dull of movement on the ground, but the ability for flight is very high. They cannot fly away without the approach run. Furthermore, wariness to the human being is little. For these reasons, they were easily caught by human. For purposes such as the use of the feather, the albatrosses were overhunted by human. By this, the number of them decreases sharply and is endangered by the present.
