Red-crested Cardinal (Paroaria coronata) Actually found this feisty fellow over on Maui, not near this cache, but thought he was worth sharing. Does not look like the cardinals in my backyard!

White tern (Gygis alba) The Hawaiian name for this guy is "manu o ku". Not a great photo, the feathers are a bit washed out, but it is a more elusive bird. Unfortunately he has made Hawaii's state threatened list, although colonies elsewhere in the Pacific are in good shape. It is an attractive bird.

Red-Footed Booby (Sula sula rubripes) The Hawaiians called all of the Boobies "'A". These are fun birds. Note those web feet trying to balance on a limb, and doing it! They can be very friendly to the point of hopping on your arm.

Frigate above the cache Frigatebird (Fregata minor). The local name is more appropriate: "Iwa", which is Hawaiian for "thief". These are fun to watch. Very acrobatic. I've seen them fly up behind another bird carrying a fish, flip over and (I swear) take a couple of backstrokes, reach up, pluck the fish away, then roll back right-side up and into a diving turn leaving the theft victim flying along with his head tucked down looking at his feet wondering what happened to the lunch he thought he had.
