Birding at our partner #HaleakalaNationalPark is one way to meet truly sublime Hawaiian endemics like this ʻapapane foraging on another endemic, the pukiawe shrub. Pretty impressive splits there, little floof!

Last April, the stream at the Kīpahulu District of our partner Haleakalā National Park was running extremely low, but since then Hawaiʻi has had a run of storms & hurricanes & the #Maui streams have revived.
If you have been here, tell us about it!
