Bird of the year


Image result for moa

My bird is a moe a very ancient bird found years ago when dinosaurs existed. The moa's sciencetific name is Dinornithiformes which is a great name for a Moa. The height of the moa is 3.6 meters which is 12 feet tall which is taller than an elephant. The Moa lived in NZ for 1,400 which is a looooooooooooong time. Also their were 11 species of moa but nothing greater like this Moa which is impressive. The moa lives in 3 main habitats scrublands, grasslands or subalpine. Moa are herbivores, because they eat berries, daisy, leaves and other plants. 



On your blog, write a short description of your bird. Where does your bird normally live? What does your bird normally eat?  Post a picture of the bird underneath your description. Be sure to attribute your picture properly.

Hey Sione

I think the Moa is a very cool bird. Have you been to the museum and stood underneath the model of the moa. It makes you feel very, VERY small.

If there were still moas around today, do you think we would farm them or ride them?

Ngā mihi,
Izzy
