how the kereru got such beuitful coloured feathers?

How the kereru got such beautiful coloured feathers?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Once  upon a time Kereru had boring coloured feathers and he was jealous of the other birds that had beautiful coloured feathers.

He wanted the Maori people to love him more. So he went to see Tane Mahuta to ask him to give him more beautiful feathers. He said yes and now the kereru has beautiful blue, green, purple and teal feathers. They are so beautiful that the Maori people use the feathers to make their cloaks.
