Hello, @maddogmike Thank you for your article on the Maori Coin. It is very beautifully made. I read about the myth of the two mythical beings Papatūānuku and Ranginui represent Mother Earth and the Heavens or the sky Father. This is a fascinating and amazing story about how the earth and heavens were created in the Maori culture!
Knowing that the Maori people are from New Zealand made me think of the flightless bird the Kakapo, and how the Maori people must have used Kakapo in their native culture. I found a really good article on the Maori and the Kakapo in Heritage Daily
Thanks again @maddogmike and have a great rest of the week! !BBH !CTP

Thank you @bbhbot 😊
I agree, it is a very interesting story from Maori mythology.
I am not familiar with the kakapo bird the main bird I am familiar with
in that part of the World is the Kiwi bird, another non-flying bird.
The kakapo looks similar to a parakeet.
Yes I love the Maori mythology too. Yes, I always knew about the Kiwi bird and learned about the Kakapo later in my life. I'm glad you got to learn about the Kakapo. Both the Kiwi and the Kakapo are endangered. Good thing they are being helped! Have a great weekend @maddogmike. Thanks again for your coin blog. I always learn a lot of new things with the coin and the lands the coins came from. 😊 !BBH !CTP
