Callaeas cinereus wilsoni (North Island Kokako)

Synonyms: Callaeas wilsoni (homotypic)

Wikipedia Abstract

The North Island kōkako (Callaeas wilsoni) is an endangered forest bird which is endemic to the North Island of New Zealand. It is grey in colour, with a small black mask. It has blue wattles (although this colour develops with age: in the young of this bird they are actually coloured a light pink). Because of its wattle, the bird is sometimes locally called the blue-wattled crow, although it is not a corvid.
