EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic beauty of the New Zealand Owl Parrot (Strigops holoroptilus), a unique and historically significant bird species native to New Zealand. Dating back to circa 1870, this image offers a rare glimpse into the past, as the New Zealand Owl Parrot is now extinct. The New Zealand Owl Parrot, also known as the owl-faced parrot or the North Island parrot, was a medium-sized parrot with distinctive owl-like features, including large, forward-facing eyes and a rounded, almost orb-like head. Its plumage was predominantly green, with red and yellow feathers on its underparts and a blue-grey beak. This extraordinary bird was an endemic species, meaning it was only found in New Zealand, and it was one of the few parrots in the world that did not have the ability to fly. Instead, it moved around on the forest floor using its strong legs and feet. The New Zealand Owl Parrot was a herbivore, feeding primarily on the leaves, seeds, and buds of various plants. The exact cause of the New Zealand Owl Parrot's extinction is not known, but it is believed to have been a combination of factors, including habitat loss, competition with introduced species, and hunting by humans. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the unique biodiversity that once existed in New Zealand and the importance of preserving the natural world for future generations. This historical photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of New Zealand and the unique avian species that once called it home. The New Zealand Owl Parrot may be gone, but its legacy lives on in the pages of history and in the memories of those who were fortunate enough to have seen it in the wild.
