| Description |
Known as ulūlu niau in Hawaiian, millerbirds were absent from Laysan Island in Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument for nearly a century because introduced rabbits and other livestock had destroyed much of their habitat. But the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has been working to restore this island's native vegetation, and in 2011, a population of 24 millerbirds were returned to the island. They thrived, producing 17 young, including this little one! That makes this ulūlu niau and the other fledglings the first Millerbird fledglings on Laysan in nearly 100 years Photo Credit: NOAA |
