Uh oh. The poor Kiwi looks scared out of its wits, or maybe it's just being inquisitive. ;)

Scared, Miss B, def scared. You'd be scared too if you were being piloted by an Aussie ;)

Love it, Stezza!

Cool I am using the same set and worm in my image. Shame the Iray conversion of the Garibaldi Hair doesn't look as good as the 3delight version attached.

Looks great, Stezza! Here is the worm link Noggin's EasyPose Worm

I've been researching NZ earthworms and discovered we have a monster called the North Auckland worm, Spenceriella gigantis, that grows to 1.4m/55inches long, 11 mm/ 1/2inch in diameter...wow, that's a big'un!

Extraordinary
:applause: There have been such wonderful Kiwi pictures posted!

But now the Kiwis have a home that is populated with amazing native plants from New Zealand. Each of these plants also comes as an indivual specimen.

One of the places that the Kiwi builds its nest is in a natural hollow that is dug by the birds themselves & Ken has created this wonderful area.

Thank you so much for your comments everyone! I really do enjoy & appreciate them!
