The Nene -The State bird of Hawaii A pair of Nene at Taro Fields / Hanalei

There is something for everyone in Hawaii. My family travels there once a year and between, surfing, snorkeling, golfing, swimming, tennis, hiking, lying on the beach, and of course terrific birdwatching, we can all find something we enjoy. It's a good idea to buy the book, Hawaii's Birds by The Hawaii Audubon Society before you go and get familiar with what birds you can expect to see in Hawaii. All the islands are beautiful, but I like Kaua'i the best. Clink Great Birding Locations for the best places on the island to go birding.  I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I had enjoyed taking them. Aloha!
