Together with supporting artists
Proceeds from this event will be used to return threatened native bird species, including kokako, to the Ark in the Park. In September 2009, the first 6 kokako have been released, and funds raised will be used to add to their number this year. Our volunteers control predators such as rats, possums, feral cats and stoats on 1750 hectares of parkland at the Cascade Kauri (Waitakere Ranges Regional Park), while weeds which take over native bush are also being targeted. Ark in the Park is a community environmental restoration project, a partnership between the Waitakere Branch of Forest & Bird and the Auckland Regional Council.
Help return threatened native bird species to the Waitakere Ranges!
