(@Kereru4PM @team_kakapo this isn't a slight against you. We just think it's time for a lesser known bird to go for the crown)
A vote for @VoteToroa for #BirdOfTheYear says "hey, we need to have a conversation about sustainable fishing." It says "let's pay attention to some of our lesser known birds." #SeabirdsNotTreeBirds #BirdOfTheYear2020 #VoteToroa @Forest_and_Bird Vote at: birdoftheyear.org.nz/antipodean-alb…
Toroa likes water. Pāpango likes water. I think there's some alliances that can be formed here.
