Found only in the Hawaiian Islands, the 'I'iwi (pronounced ee-EE-vee) is a native honeycreeper uniquely adapted to sip nectar from certain flowers.
As is the case with other Hawaiian forest birds, ‘Iʻiwis have declined because of habitat loss, avian disease, and the introduction of alien plants and animals.
ABC is working with the state Division of Forestry and Wildlife and other partners on forest restoration projects on Mauna Kea on the Big Island, and on leeward east Maui that will ultimately improve habitat conditions for 'I'iwi and other threatened forest birds such as Palila and Maui Parrotbill.
