I counted six different Kereru around the garden today. I have a few tree lucerne, kowhai trees, and a couple of small almond trees that they love feeding on. They strip the trees of their new leaves, climbing right out to the ends of branches barely big enough to support them, to get the freshest shoots, often breaking the branches in the process. The almond trees have had a really hard time surviving them, but it's worth it to have these guys around.
