PAUL SCREETON WRITES

I'm sure you're very busy but here's an item you might want for CFZ blog. Probably not a source you read regularly:

'A plume from the extinct huia bird has sold for a record sum at auction in New Zealand. The feather was bought by a family from Wellington who declined to be identified. The brown and white feather traditionally used to adorn Maori chiefs sold for £3,800. No huia bird has been since 1907' -- Daily Sport, 23 June 2010.
