Spotted
The Omao, or Hawaiian Thrush, is an endemic Hawaiian thrush species, characterized by its dull olive-brown plumage and a soft, flute-like song. It is a reclusive forest bird.
Where to spot
Endemic to the island of Hawaii (the Big Island), inhabiting native wet forests, particularly in the mid to high elevation zones.
How to spot
Look for its plain olive-brown plumage in dense native forests. It is often shy and inconspicuous, so listening for its distinctive soft, fluty song can aid detection.
When to spot
Most active during the early morning and late afternoon. Can be observed year-round within its resident range.
