OLLIE THE-COCKATIEL'S EPIC KIWI ADVENTURE...

I'm Ollie, a crippled Cockatiel, hand-raised from a young chick at Bird Rescue and Rehoming, Cambridge. Along with Hoomum and Hoo-Pop (two ageing Teletubbies), I'll be shaking my tail feathers as I walk, hike, bike, hitch, row, paddle, ferry, whizzboat, or catch a train to travel the length of NZ (over the next 18 months) to meet as many hoomans as I can! I'll be attempting to raise $20,000 for flaptabulous animal charity HUHANZ, while sharing a bird's-eye view of my epic Kiwi adventure on Facebook and Instagram. I hope my adventures will encourage flaptastic 'followers and supporters' to get off the couch, go walkies and explore their local area: whether it be a small bush or beach walk, river trail, forest track, park, or just camp outside for the night in the backyard! Of course I'll be working very hard to help hoomans part with their money, so we can raise 'bizquillions' for the good eggs at HUHANZ, and help all the birdiful animals in their care (especially the wonky ones like me). Big thankies for helping to 'share the love'... from your feathered friend Ollie The-Cockatiel.
