Vote the Takoketai Black Petrel as your 2026 Bird of the Year 🗳️ We're behind Live Ocean's campaign to champion the Tākoketai Black Petrel - a bird that flies solo thousands of kilometres across the Pacific Ocean from Aotea Great Barrier Island and Hauturu Little Barrier Island, at just three months old. The Black Petrel has a strong claim to be one of New Zealand’s most underrated endurance athletes.
