The Black Stilts are pretty cool. They are strikingly black. Doc has a captive breeding and release programme so a predator free protected area in the Tekapo riverbed would make sense as this is where they mostly seem to head to for nesting. There are a LOT of cats in that area. I flicked the light around one night when fishing at the canals after I heard a rabbit screaming and saw 3 cats and 2 ferrets all heading towards the noise within about three minutes of the noise starting.
