Oh good lord, John Oliver has some clout.

Who did you vote for?

It's funny, brings invaluable pr, and otherwise unimportant. Hopefully the most memest answer prevails

I voted for a combination of my favourites and birds I think need more attention.

I can't remember who I voted for 😄. I know Fairy Tern and South Island Kōkako were in the mix, as some of my favourites.

I voted Huia, I just have a soft spot for them

I voted for Fairy Tern because it is NZ's rarest bird.

I also voted for dottys and kiwi and riroriro and the endangered native gulls. It took me way too long to choose. All our birds are so lovely and feel like friends.
