Introduction
The kiwi is New Zealand's national bird and emblem, a nocturnal, flightless species found only in New Zealand. In Rotorua, venues like Rainbow Springs and Willowbank run dim-lit kiwi houses that mimic night conditions so you can watch birds forage; wild sightings usually require night tours due to the kiwi's nocturnal habits and protected habitat.
