Article Type: Paper

Seven adult takahe and two chicks were banded with coloured poultry type rings. Preliminary notes in the first few days following banding indicated movement up to a quarter-mile from the original tagging site. Three observations of banded birds two months after banding were made in the same general areas used by these birds at the time of banding. Daily movements were recorded for one pair, the overall distance covered in a 16 hour 15 minute period being 375 yards. Roosting of one pair with chick was observed both in the same locality on two successive nights, and on two other nights the same birds roosted in different localities. Several aspects of the disturbance behaviour were described.
