$50 dollar note!!!!
The New Zealand $50 dollar note has a Kokako on one side and on the other side there is Sir Apirana. Sir Apirana was a governer.Sir Apirana played a significant role in the revival of Maori people and culture during the early years of the twentieth century. He was the first Maori to graduate from a New Zealand university, and an elected Member of Parliament for 38 years.The Kokako is a large native bird with a distinctive steel-grey body and a black face `mask'. The variety pictured on the note is the South Island kokako. Kokako are much larger than a tui, and prefer to hop up trees to gain enough height to be able to glide. They seldom fly further than 100 metres.
