About These Birds

Black-faced Canary

The Black-faced Canary is a small, bright finch with vivid green and yellow plumage and a distinctive black face and throat patch on the male. It inhabits open woodland, forest edges, and gardens of central Africa, from the Democratic Republic of Congo through Uganda and Kenya. It feeds primarily on small seeds and berries, often gathering in flocks that move through the canopy.

Akekee

The Akekee is a critically endangered Hawaiian honeycreeper weighing about 11 g with a wingspan near 12 cm. Endemic to the upland forests of Kauai, it uses its uniquely twisted bill to pry open leaf buds and extract insects, and is severely threatened by avian malaria and habitat loss.
