Lyrics

[00:02.78] Alpine parrots, called ''kea'', after their calls.
[00:10.98] Living higher than any other parrots,
[00:13.14] these are possibly the world's most playful birds.
[00:24.67] But most of New Zealand's pioneering creatures were drawn to the forests below.
[00:30.15] And here, too, given the strange nature of life on Pacific islands,
[00:34.51] it pays to expect the unexpected.
[00:45.55] And the last thing you might expect to see here is penguins.
[00:58.84] These are Fiordland crested penguins, named after this corner of south New Zealand,
[01:24.56] They're on their daily trip to the sea.
[01:26.86] Despite hanging out in the forest, they haven't lost their taste for fish.
[01:37.19] So why are these woodlands so attractive to penguins?
[01:42.90] Because there are no large predators here,
[01:45.37] it's a safe place for bringing up baby.
[02:02.42] A freshwater stream through the forest makes a handy highway for a parent penguin heading home from a fishing trip with a crop full of food.
[02:11.42] undefined
