Today we are lifting our first eggs of the new breeding season. These eggs have been laid quite early, so hopefully we will have a good season!
Last week we had John Wilks and Alastair Bramley from Wildtech NZ Ltd come to visit. John and Al made us our "Egg-Timer" transmitters. Now they are trialling something new and exciting.. it's called "Ear in the Air". This is when a pilot will fly a small plane around the sanctuary and a computer will get signals for all the birds wearing transmitters. We will be able to get the information from the computer, and will know which birds are incubating. This means we can monitor more birds and get more eggs!
