#Laysan finches
ʻEkupuʻu again soar through skies above fields of Kuaihelani after 80 years
100 Laysan finches, a native Hawaiian bird that once thrived at Midway Atoll on the far northern end of the Hawaiian archipelago, now a part of Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument, were released on Eastern Island last week as part of continuing efforts to re-establish and expand native bird populations to the national monument in preparation for potential catastrophic events.
