Live Orokonui Kākā Cam –

Описание: Orokonui Kākā Cam was launched in May 2024 by Orokonui Ecosanctuary and sponsored by Port Otago. This livestream camera is buried deep within the ecosanctuary, so it captures forest life at its most natural.

While the cam livestreams all of the forest’s wildlife, the curious kākā is ringmaster of the feeding station, thus “Kākā Cam”.

The mechanical noise you can hear, when birds are feeding is the specialised kākā feeding stations opening and closing. These stations exclude blackbirds and sparrows which would otherwise steal all the kākā’s food. The stations contain a special parrot pellet, feeders are replenished daily and regularly cleaned to keep kākā and other visitors healthy.

Orokonui Ecosanctuary – Te Korowai o Mihiwaka – is a 307 hectare fenced sanctuary near Dunedin, New Zealand. Its 9km fence protects a special cloud forest ecosystem and the threatened native species within the forest from introduced mammal predators and browsers. The sanctuary is home to some of the most special and threatened wildlife in Aotearoa New Zealand, including takahē, kākā, tuatara, and tokoeka (kiwi).
