About These Birds

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.

Black-and-yellow Grosbeak

The Black-and-yellow Grosbeak is a large, robust finch of montane conifer forests in the western Himalayas from Afghanistan to Nepal. Males are brilliant yellow below with black upperparts and a massive yellow bill adapted for cracking seeds. It feeds on pine seeds, buds, berries, and insects, often in small flocks.
