A Giclee dated 2010. The original watercolor for this print won first prize among bird paintings at the Hawaii Nei art competition - a competition with emphasis on Hawaiian endemic bird species.
From CoffeeTimes.com: "There are no statistics on the pueo's population numbers. They are present on all the islands, but they are definitely in decline on Oahu, where urban development makes it impossible for the shy, brown bird to find the green, solitude it craves. Considered endangered on Oahu, pueo has become a candidate for threatened status throughout the island chain."
