      Hi! The trail is an in and out route. 1:22 - 1:40 captures the part that you will ascend and descend as that is the beginning/ending. It can be steep however I’ve seen children hike this trail. But I recommend if you want to er on the side of caution, to bring a hiking stick or pole and that should help :)

    Looks like your unidentified honeycreeper at 2:25 is a juvenile 'Amakihi begging for food (classic wing-flutter & begging calls from a drabber bird, following a parent around; I think the plumage looks a bit too disheveled & undeveloped to be an adult female engaged in courtship); if you look up videos of juvenile songbirds begging, you'll see very similar behavior, pretty much universally. Congrats on your unusual sighting! I've been birding annually on Maui for the last half decade, and I'm finally going to bird Big Island this Jan, so your videos are super helpful (love your photos too!). How difficult was the road up to Palila? Did you ever do a private Hakalau tour? I'm never there when the annual public walk happens, but I really hope to see akepa, creeper, and akiapola'au!

    • @thehiescapade
      @thehiescapade 3 місяці тому

      Thank you so much! you would love big island, I think there's much more native birds you'll see there versus maui. The road to Palila discovery isn't too bad, but you'll go through bumps for sure. Definitely get a 4 wheel drive though. Haven't done a private Hakalau tour, that is on our wishlist though. I still gotta see the Aki one day. Hopefully you can attend the annual Walk for Wild at Hakalau, that's a great opp to see the akepa, alawi, and aki!

    I do environmental and conservation work here in Oahu, and I wish that you touched on the negatives about microspikes in this video. As it tears up the trails and rips out the native plants. Since they dig in, they pull out the roots of native plants that hold the topsoil together. Without that topsoil, the bedrock gets exposed, leading to the massive erosion that we see on a lot the trails. That bedrock is the super slippery muddy chunks that are all throughout eroded trails. In turn, the erosion creates landslides and causes more damage to the trails. This should be weighed out before buying microspikes

    • @thehiescapade

    Kind of Karama when you over book and they keep your money because you didn't read the rules. Also no DOGS... they scare some people, possibly over a cliff! Also if no ones watching, how many people are actually going to pick up the poop? Also the urine and feces can kill off native plants and cause a stink for others. NO DOGS in public and environmental protected areas makes total sense.
