The Apteryx or Kiwi of New Zealand
The apteryx or kiwi is a wingless night bird found only in New Zealand. It is the size of a domestic fowl with a mottled brown humry coat, nocturnal and active as it thrusts its long bill into the earth for worms, emitting continuous audible spillage during hunts. The bird struggles to see by day, catches luminous fire worms at night, and leaves a phosphorescent beak residue while foraging. A notable fact is its large egg, weighing over 12 ounces, about a quarter of the bird’s body mass.
