TODAY WE
FINALLY SAW A KIWI! We went to a bird-rescue-centre (and fish). There we took a
tour. Our guide (Felicety) brought us first to the house of the kiwi’s. We saw
two of the three. One was sleeping, the other one was searching for food. They were
so big like chickens. Did you know that the kiwi makes, if you look to their
body, one of the biggest eggs? They also have nostrils on the end of their
beck. Kiwi’s are birds, but they can’t fly. Maori believe kiwi’s gave their
wings and sight to keep the ground clean of insects that infect the trees.
We also saw
many kinds of other birds, reptiles and fish. And I learned about Maori
symbols. You have an X that is closed on top, it means stench. Than you have
spiral, for growth. You also have the fishhook, which stands for save
travelling. And there is an eight with three holes for friendship, love and a
good relationship. And these are only a few of the symbols. Tomorrow, or the
day after that, maybe we’ll go to a centre where you can make necklaces out of
greenstone. If I can make a symbol, I’ll make one of these.
