This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!

NZ Kiwi is a Travel Bug Dog Tag Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.

Trackable ItemIf you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!

If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.

My Current Goal:

This Travel Bug wants to travel the world visiting as many countries as possible before returning home to NZ. Take photos of it with scenic views of your country. Please move it along to another traditional cache as soon as you can.

The Kiwi bird, of the order Apterygiformes-Ratitae, occurs only in New Zealand. A flightless bird about the size of a domestic fowl, the kiwi has coarse, bristly, hair-like feathers. Females are larger than males. The kiwi’s long slender bill has nostrils at the lower end. Using its excellent sense of smell and flexible bill, the kiwi feeds on worms, insects and grubs, supplemented by leaves, berries and seeds.
Because the kiwi is a semi-nocturnal, secretive bird, few New Zealanders have seen their national bird in the wild.
