Hawaiian Mamo Colouring Page

Hawaiian Mamo (Drepanis pacifica). Country of origin: Hawaiʻi Island in the United States. Extinction: The last accepted record was in 1898. Cause: Forest degradation, introduced predators and disease are implicated; the bird was also historically caught for its prized yellow feathers. Special characteristics: Its slim body, very long downcurved bill, and distinctive rump and thigh feather patches make this honeycreeper easy to recognise. How to Colour: Use charcoal-black on the body, bright yellow on the rump and thigh patches, and a dark curved bill. Leave small highlights so the feather lines remain visible.
