Every Inchie Monday -- New Zealand

This week we are off to New Zealand, somewhere I would love to visit. For my sewn one I have used the national flower which is the Kowhai (Sophia) tree It has lovely yellow flowers, that I haven't done justice to.
The drawn one just had to be the National bird, the kiwi., and what a strange looking bird it is.
The kiwi is a unique and curious bird: it cannot fly, has loose hair-like feathers, strong legs and no tail.
New Zealanders have be called 'Kiwis', since the nickname was bestowed on them by Australian soldiers during the First World War.
