    I tried to be clever and link straight to old photos on facebook, didn't work. Try these instead:

    Kea aerobatics (2) by gravelben, on Flickr

    Kea aerobatics (1) by gravelben, on Flickr

    Guess that place is called Kea Basin for a reason!

    Now you lot inspired me to look through my old Kea photos and sharpen them up a bit... this one was thinking about stealing the camera.

    Yep looks like it. I thought I'd taken photos of a different shag later on, but it has the same torn webbing so i guess it was the same one in a different place.

    Shags crack me up. The size of fish they can stuff in their gobs always blows me away. Guess the males of the species have it made?
