Description

ʻŌʻu were once common honeycreepers across all the main Hawaiian Islands, but the last confirmed sighting of an ʻōʻū was on Kauaʻi in 1989. This species is now presumed to be extinct. Listen to the song of this long-lost bird on today's Manu Minute, thanks to recordings from the Macaulay Library at the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology.
