Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Waitangiroto Nature Reserve; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Hook, length, date, close paraphrase check ok. Creator has 2 previous DYK credits, so no need for QPQ. Notably there is free image of the bird at File:Kotuku_·_Rina_Sjardin-Thompson_WCSW.jpg that could be used. --Soman (talk) 14:09, 13 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
