John Palmer (Posts as Omega) on here, lives on North Island. Perhaps worth a pm Robin. Sure he would be more than happy to sort you out/give you a tour. Of the video's i have seen, it looks reasonable.

It wasn't the Keas that we had issue with. Was the biting flies. Kea's only really tormented us during the day. Never with tents, just with food boxes.
and they seemed to go to bed when it got dark.
