### Instruction: What is the national bird of New Zealand?
### Response: The kiwi bird is the national bird of New Zealand.  This bird is particularly interesting because it cannot fly and it runs very fast.  If you see one in person consider yourself lucky because sightings are rare during the day and in highly populated areas.  It also has strong legs and no tail.  New Zealanders adore this bird and often refer to it as the 'humble kiwi.'
