They directed the device to film a group of interested birds that joined them outside the room where they were staying, Alex Verhoul said in an interview with broadcaster Seven Sharp on Thursday.

But a cheeky kea flew in with the camera, capturing aerial images of the landscape before landing on a piece of land, striking the device again and again with its beak.

Surprisingly, the GoPro escaped its ordeal: a family member heard the scream and ran in the direction of the noise to retrieve it.

Conveniently, the bird flew in a straight line to the Verhole Seven Sharp so they could keep track of it.

“I downloaded (pictures) on my phone … was amazing. It was completely unexpected.”

The next day, a key also stole a mug from a bag.
