Variants:
Availability: Rare. It was seen only on The WotWots while Thunderbirds Are Go uses an in-credit version.

Nicknames: "The Pukeko", "Watercolor Pukeko"
Logo: On a white background, a square depicts a watercolor sequence of a pukeko flying down onto shallow water.

A border in the hill and reed's color appears along with "PUKEKO" in blue (with a dash above the "U"), sans the "E" which is in red and "PICTURES" below also in blue.

Variants:
- A shortened version appears at the beginning of The WotWots where the logo fades away and the background segues into the show's intro.
- An in-credit version appears on Thunderbirds Are Go.
Availability: Rare. It was seen only on The WotWots while Thunderbirds Are Go uses an in-credit version.
Scare Factor: Low. The pukeko's squawks would make some jump, specially if unfamiliar with the animal, but a majority would consider this to be gorgeous, citing its watercolor style and representation of New Zealand fauna.
