You have to see them to truly appreciate them. One of my favorite views was of
birds foraging in vegetation within a amkipuka right next to the road on the
Big Island.

I saw several Iiwis on one visit to Hawaii, in 1976. They are awesome!
Agree, lucky enough to have seen 3 times including several flying
around and interacting in the open at eye level along the small canyon
adjacent to Hosmer Grove on Maui in 2010. Possibly my favorite bird.
In fact I have a Wild Republic Audubon plush Iiwi with sound sitting
above my work area at home that I listen to frequently. Highly
recommend it.
