Overview of your Maui tour:

If you want to see the "real" Hawaiian forest birds and have a positive identification, I'm the guide for you! We have a permit to enter Haleakala National Park, where I worked for 9 years, including 2 years as a National Park Service ranger. I have been a birdwatcher since the age of 9 and look forward to showing you the beautiful birdlife of Maui. When I first visited Hawaii (Waikiki), the first bird I noticed was the striking Red-Crested Cardinal, but I wondered why I didn't see any of the birds on the "Native Hawaiian birds" page of my Peterson Field Guide. When I moved to Maui and visited the national park with a guide and got to see my first bright red 'I'iwi, I finally knew what I wanted to be when I grow up--a ranger/naturalist--to "infect" others with love and care for these unique beautiful creatures! We will spend a good amount of time at the park and then also include a wetlands stop and a golf course with a surprising number of introduced species.
