E7They Love Their Mummy's Vom

The baby humans have erupted into song; this must mean they're hungry! Luckily Kererū is here to save the day with a big juicy mouthful of... wriggly worms.
E8Smarter Than They Look
Mar 7, 2022
The birds are puzzled as to where the adult humans go every day. Why do they do this and could they perhaps be smarter than they look?
Our clueless birds are flying beyond the backyard—straight into more chaos! With their hilariously misguided take on the human world, they’ll bumble through new territories, meet unexpected allies (and enemies), and cause even bigger, wilder trouble. More laughs, more mayhem - all this from the Bird that Heard!

E8This Bird's Got Talent
Nov 13, 2025
After obsessively watching TV, Big Jim realises humans can’t get enough of talent shows. So why not have one of their own? The best act wins!
In Series 3, we find ourselves in Australia with both old feathered friends and new. And guess what - Australian and New Zealand humans are just as weird as each other! These wild misinterpretations lead to skew-whiff attempts at putting things right, which unwittingly catapults our flock into adventure...
