We were heading for New Zealand's biggest city, Auckland, but stopped en route at the Otorohanga Kiwi House.
Although we'd seen lots of statues of New Zealand's national bird (here I am with another one), this was our first opportunity to see the birds themselves. They are nocturnal so it is very dark inside to fool the birds into thinking it is night-time. That way people can see them moving rather than asleep but, of course, flash photography isn't allowed.
