| The 'I'iwi (Vestiaria coccinea) is a native Hawaiian honeycreeper and the only member of its genus. Honeycreepers fill the niche of hummingbirds by feeding on the nectar of flowers. The 'I'iwi is fairly common on several of the Hawaiian islands. The 14 shots on this page show an 'I'iwi feeding in an 'Ohi'a tree about 20 miles west of Hilo on Hawaii's big island. With its magnificent curved bill this bird is amazing to watch as it forages in flowers. |  |
