I will take the opportunity to ask you all if anyone have been birding in
the island of Oahu, Hawaii? I am going there in October to attend a
conference and will take some days off. Time and money is unforturnately
limited so the other islands are not an option this trip.
Kapiolani Park in Honolulu has numerous exotics and is one of the best
places to see White Tern (look in the trees near the zoo). The Puu Ualakaa
park on the Tantalus-Roundtop Drive above the city has the endemic Oahu
Amakihi.
Islets like Moku Manu on the northern side of the island have boobies,
especially Red-footed.
If you can, get a copy of Pratt's "Enjoying Birds in Hawaii" which gives
directions to a number of other spots on Oahu.
