About These Birds
Hawfinch
The hawfinch possesses the most powerful bill relative to body size of any European bird, capable of cracking cherry stones that require a force of 27-43 kg. Despite its distinctive appearance, it is famously shy and difficult to observe. The skull contains special adaptations to absorb the enormous forces generated during seed-cracking.
Anianiau
The Anianiau is a tiny endangered Hawaiian honeycreeper with an 11.5 cm wingspan, weighing around 10.4 grams. It is the smallest of the Hawaiian honeycreepers, found only in native forest on Kauai. It feeds on nectar from native flowers and small arthropods.
