Please join us in the library’s first floor reading room for a presentation by DLNR on native forest birds in Hawaiʻi, the “jewels of our Hawaiian forest,” and learn about their critical role in our ecology as pollinators, seed dispersers, and insect managers of Hawaiian forests. Find out why Hawai’i has lost so many native birds and what is being done to save those that remain from extinction. Two short films will also be screened: Realm of the Gods (8 min) and Nā Manu ʻEha (3.5 min).

Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program, service, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged, but not required.
