Researchers at AAAS Pacific Division Meeting Explore the Startling Decline of a Hawaiian Native Bird WAIMEA, Hawaii—The Hawaii akepa is a tiny bird, about the size of a small finch, and where its scarlet cousin the I'iwi is spectacular and another cousin, the akohekohe, is an amazing blend of black, red, and orange, the akepa's beauty is more humble.
