Toroa Bio poem- Donnie

 WALT: Take the information from a non-fiction text to complete a bio poem

Toroa 

Precious, Graceful, Solitary, Agile

Lover of their preferred habitat the freezing Southern Ocean.

Who feels extremely threatened by the pollution that is poisoning and killing our sea manu.

Who needs to stay away from the horrifying fishing boats that are rapidly killing the albatross.

Who gave their extremely soft feathers to the Pakeha to turn into warm muffs for their hands.

Who fears the vicious hooks with tempting bait.

Who would like to clack and clapper their bills all day long, disturbing their neighbours.

Who comes from the windy, sunny Tairoa Heads in South Dunedin.
