Mohua. It is a kahui in Hornby High School, and a bird out in the wilderness. It is a small bird with yellow feathers, and is also endangered.
Their diet consists of small insects and worms, occasionally also some seeds that they can find. They migrate in numerous groups and sometimes, even migrate with groups of other birds.
Over the years, the Mohua population has declined from the hundred thousandths all the way down to the hundreths because of pests like stoats and rats killing them and eating the eggs. Nowadays, they are found in the South Islands and are a protected species because of its low population.
This is all of the information that I could find about the Mohua. I am sure there is more information about them, but unfortunately I am unable to find more.
