The Anianiau is a small, bright yellow Hawaiian honeycreeper endemic to Kauai. It is characterized by its slender, decurved bill, perfectly adapted for extracting nectar from small flowers.
Where to spot
Endemic to the island of Kauai, Hawaii. It is found across various native and introduced forests, from lowland to high elevations, often in 'ōhi'a and koa forests.
How to spot
Look for this small, active, all-yellow bird flitting among flowering trees. Its small size and slender, decurved bill are key identifiers. Listen for its high-pitched, rapid 'chip' notes and sweet, rapid trills.
When to spot
A common year-round resident. Best observed during early mornings when actively feeding on nectar or insects in flowering trees.
