Birds of A Feather - Hawaiian Birds

None-the-less, only a species of Kaua‘i ‘o‘o,
which is smaller and has fewer yellow feathers than
Big Island ‘o‘o once had, are thought to survive
in small numbers on the edges of the Alaka‘i Swamp.
The mamo, a black honeycreeper which had a few yellow
feathers used in feather craft by has not been seen
since 1907 on Moloka‘i. Mamo feathers can be viewed,
however, at Bishop Museum on O‘ahu where 450,000
of them from an estimated 80,000 birds are sewn with
‘olona fiber into a golden feather cloak once worn
by King Kamehameha I.
