The Kākāpō, or Owl Parrot😀

Unfortunately, these cuties are critically endangered, with only ~224 currently left, living across four NZ islands. It seems that introduced predators (mainly cats, rats and weasels) almost wiped this species out, but in the mid-90's, a desperation program was launched to save them.

The kākāpō cannot fly, having relatively short wings for its size and lacking the keel on the sternum (breastbone), where the flight muscles of other birds attach. It uses its wings for balance and to break its fall when leaping from trees. Unlike many other land birds, the kākāpō can accumulate large amounts of body fat. --WP

The kākāpō has a well-developed sense of smell, which complements its nocturnal lifestyle. It can distinguish between odours while foraging, a behaviour reported in only one other parrot species. The kākāpō has a large olfactory bulb ratio (longest diameter of the olfactory bulb/longest diameter of the brain) indicating that it does, indeed, have a more developed sense of smell than other parrots.

Pretty dang interesting to me, as birds in general tend to have a poor sense of smell & taste AFAIK.
