T-Shirt Tuesday: Birdorable Kakapo BOOOOOM!

Birdorable Kakapo BOOOOOM! kids basic long sleeve t-shirt

This week's featured t-shirt design is our Birdorable Kakapo in BOOOOOM!!! which is shown here on a Kids' Basic Long Sleeve T-shirt from Zazzle. The model shown above is 4'7" and is wearing a small.

The critically endangered Kakapo parrot (or Owl Parrot) of New Zealand is the only flightless species of bird to use a lek breeding system for mating. During part of the lekking process, males compete for females by displaying and making a "booming" sound. Boom! Males position themselves kilometers apart to signal to potential mates.

This fun and original Birdorable design is inspired by the booms of the lekking Kakapo. Pick this up for the Kakapo lover on your list! Only true Kakapo fans will "get" this unique and cute cartoon design.
