This comprehensive work is an essential resource for those who are interested in identifying, locating, and learning more about the avifauna of Hawai\'i..
In total, 170 species or subspecies are described and illustrated.
Superbly illustrated in color by the author and Jack Jeffrey, two of Hawai\'i\'s best nature photographers, this Guide includes nearly every species of bird on land and at sea in the Main Hawaiian Islands.
In these magnificent Islands there is something for birders of every sort.
Others are so rare they are glimpsed only once in a lifetime.
Some island bird species are extremely abundant and instantly familiar since we encounter them daily in our outdoor activities.
Introduced species and long-distance migrants contribute to the splendid assortment.
From the Offshore waters, where graceful seaBirds glide on the cool, refreshing trade winds, to the lush ancient forests of the mountains, where colorful endemic honeycreepers reside, Hawai\'i\'s Birds are wonderfully diverse.
