The palila is the last finch-billed native honeycreeper. These rare birds have all but vanished from the Hawaiian Islands, with the exception of a few small patches of high elevation forest on the west side of Maunakea on Hawaiʻi Island. 🟡⚫⚪

Happy Birdtober!
💛 Palila
Loxioides bailleui

Meet the rare palila — a bright yellow finch-like bird found only in the dry māmane forests of Maunakea Volcano. Proof that unique birds need unique habitats, and that both need protecting.

Happy Birdtober!

🌺 ʻApapane
Himatione sanguinea

Bright red, always busy, and full of song — the ʻapapane loves ʻōhiʻa nectar! Spotting one means you’re in healthy native forest like the forests of Hawaiʻi Volcanoes & Haleakalā national parks.

Close up profile of a dove with a generally pinkish cast and subtle pastel bluish head along with a dark collar dappled with white spots in the neck area. Moss-covered rock and a few plants in the background.

Another lovely bird commonly seen on the Hawai'ian islands, but this spotted dove is not native, being introduced in the 1800s from southeast Asia for sport shooting--can you imagine that?? #bird #hawaiibirds #spotteddove

Black chicken-sized waterfowl with white beak and forehead standing in rippling water.

Looking very much like an American Coot, the Hawai'ian Coot is actually a separate species. The bird is only found on the Hawai'ian islands. It is endangered and numbers in the few thousands. The local name is 'Alae ke'oke'o with 'Alae translating as mudhen and ke'o meaning white. #bird #hawaiibirds
