The Hawaii Amakihi is a common and adaptable Hawaiian honeycreeper endemic to Hawaii Island. It is a small, yellowish-green bird with a slender, decurved bill, known for its versatility in feeding on nectar, insects, and fruits.
Where to spot
Endemic to Hawaii Island. Found across a wide range of habitats, from native 'ōhi'a forests at high elevations to lowland dry forests, degraded woodlands, and even suburban gardens.
How to spot
Look for this small, yellowish-green bird with a curved bill actively feeding on flowers or probing bark for insects. Its adaptability makes it one of the most frequently seen honeycreepers. Listen for its cheerful, whistled song and sharp 'chip' calls.
When to spot
