Akiapola'au...

Hawaii 2025

Akiapola'au sent on October 15, 2025 (7:11) by Bo Larkeed. 63 comments, 695 views.

con Canon EF 1.4x III, 1/800 f/9.0, ISO 2500, hand held. Specie: Hemignathus munroi

L' Akiapola'au (Aki) (Hemignathus wilsoni, o munroi) e' uno dei piu' particolari honeycreepers endemici delle Hawaii, minacciato di estinzione (restano meno di 2000 esempari); molto difficile da trovare e fotografare nella foresta. Il becco e' molto singolare: la parte inferiore serve a bucare i vecchi tronchi (come un picchio) alla ricerca di larve, e la parte superiore serve ad estrarre la larva; la femmina depone un solo uovo ogni 2 anni; le cure parentali durano piu' di un anno affinche' il piccolo impari a trovare le larve e ad estrarle dai rami. Un privilegio aver potuto vedere e fotografare questo piccolo grande gioiello della natura, purtroppo sull'orlo della estinzione. Hakalau forest wildlife refuge, Big Island, Hawaii, 11 Ottobre 2025; esordio della specie nel Forum; un saluto cordiale a tutti !

You, who catch them all, imagine if you could avoid capturing the portrait of a bird called "Akiapola'au"! :-D
Joking aside, magnificent specimen, with a truly unique beak!
Congratulations Bo; I also take this opportunity to compliment you for the very interesting captions that you enclose to the shots!
