Here it is, guys! The kakapo in all its glory. Enjoy!
To watch the video, you'll need to press the RED play button once, and then press it again when it turns GREEN.
I would recommend you to let the video load for a few minutes [wait for the gray bar to fill up as much as possible, if not completely] so that it's not too choppy when you try to watch it. We stopped watching at around the 35th min. mark.
If the video doesn't work for you, use this link to watch it:
