How many of these 5 native birds have you spotted on Oahu?
Manu-o-Kū (White Tern): Honolulu's official bird, and the only one on this list that never builds a nest.
Aeʻo (Hawaiian Stilt): pound for pound, the 2nd-leggiest bird alive, and a real Hawaiian conservation comeback story.
ʻAlae ʻula (Hawaiian Gallinule): legend says this bird stole fire from the gods, and its red forehead never let it forget.
ʻAukuʻu (Black-crowned Night Heron) — the quiet hunter that fishes in broad daylight, a habit found almost nowhere else in the world.
Mōlī (Laysan Albatross): a 6.5-foot wingspan, and days-long flights without a single wingbeat.
Save this for your next walk around the island. And if you'd rather have someone point them out in person, that's kind of our whole thing.
