Bird Nerd List February '13 Update - Maui



We had a wonderful time in Maui last week.   I had a CME conference at the Westin Maui Resort on Kaanapali Beach, and so we stayed there. I also got some good birding in at Hosmer's Grove in Haleakala National Park, Kealia Pond, and just around the resort.  I was very excited when I saw my first I'iwi and my first Amakihi.  I also saw my first owl in the wild, the Pueo, or Hawaiian Owl.  I saw some Nene's in flight, but not close enough to get a good, detailed picture.  So that's 14 new birds to start out the year.  I hope it gets warmer so I can start seeing new birds around here soon too. 

(3/10/13 update - Added some pictures of ducks and geese we saw at Jensen Nature Park today.  Look under Canada Goose, Lesser Scaup, ruddy duck and bufflehead.)
