Beautiful Bird Tuesday hosted by Susan Bird. Thank you much my friend. Stephenβs island Wren (Traversia lyalli) (Extinct)
Also known as the βLyalls wren, the Stephenβs island wren was a bird endemic to New Zealand.
* Interestingly, this bird was flightless as it possessed no keel on its breast bone in order to attach the muscles necessary for flight. It also had very short wings and loosely attached feathers.

* Because of the extensive island development and widespread predation by the exotic cats, the population of this bird became totally wiped out in 1895π½π

Itβs sad how many species weβve demolished with human occupation of areas. These look like they were amazing little beauties

@Tee H @π₯π₯π₯Smokey π₯π₯π₯πΉπΉπΉ Thank you much my friendβs. Yea. Humans are parasites. Every animal will disappear but not humans, mosquitoes, and roaches. I hope we donβt find a planet comparable to earth because weβll just destroy itπ’π½π
