Although this year s nesting season has come to an end, ecologists are still waiting for an additional 20 or more kōkako fledglings in Pirongia Forest Park.
The Pirongia Te Aroaro O Kahu Restoration Society (PRS) has almost completed its annual kōkako nest monitoring and has observed nine pairs since the start of the season in September. Each pair is incubating and rearing at least one clutch of chicks and, in the case of one pair, three clutches.
