The story of the evolution of Hawaiian Honeycreepers is pretty fascinating. It's been likened to the evolution of Darwin's finches. I spent 5 years in Hawaii while I was in graduate school. My part-time job was to lead people on hikes up the mountains on the island of Hawaii. It allowed me to see some of the native birds in person.

I'm proud to release this video, one we worked on with Pearson Publishing a few years back for their high school biology textbooks. If you don't know a lot about the evolution of these birds, I think you'll enjoy this little retro video from Untamed Science.
