But... wouldn't it fall upward on the lower side of the world?

Wow, those things look huge!
But then, it's hard to judge size from photos sometimes (or even in real life), so I looked them up. And what I found, confirmed that they are huge.
But I also got the impression they are non-migratory, so it is the thing that it is eating, rather than the bird itself, that indicates spring is coming?

Yep, they eat last season's seeds from Kowhai trees during spring - these seeds hang on the tree through the winter and go nice and hard with plenty of flavour and this is a nice snack for these birds. Also helps to spread the seeds around.

That's what I thought. Imagine if the shit hits the fan...
