About These Birds
Black Rosy-finch
The Black Rosy-finch is an endangered, medium-sized finch with jet-black body plumage and rose-pink wing and rump patches that give the rosy-finch group their name. It breeds at high altitude in rocky alpine terrain of the Rocky Mountains in the western United States, nesting in cliff crevices and talus slopes above the snowline. It feeds on seeds, insects, and invertebrates found at the snow's edge and in alpine meadows.
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.
