Day 29 - Palila 🪶 #AvianAugust #AvianAugust2025 After days of extinct birds, it's a nice change to draw a species still with us (though critically endangered), so this one is saying: I'm still kicking!

Palila #avianaugust #birdart 🪶

ʻUla-ʻai-hāwane - extinct since 1892. There are only 5 surviving museum specimens of this bird, and a few 19th-early 20th century renderings of it, most of which were made after the bird was already gone. #avianaugust #birdart 🪶
