People travel to Hawaii for sun, sand, and surf but increasingly spend parts of their trips hiking, birdwatching, kayaking, whale-watching, or snorkeling in the island's stunning national parks and nature reserves. Ecotravellers to the islands know that Hawaii is a special place biologically, harboring many native animal and plant species that occur nowhere else on Earth. Contained in this book is all the information you need to find, identify, and learn about the island's magnificent animal life. The author visited parks and preserves, discussed wildlife with local and international experts, and then selected his color illustrations from more than 300 of the islands' most common fish, amphibians, reptiles, mammals, and birds (including essentially every Hawaiian bird). You will want to have this easy-to-carry, entertainingly written, beautifully illustrated book as a constant companion on your trip. Key Features * Provides identifying, location, and conservation information on frequently spotted animals * Gives up-to-date information on the ecology, behavior, and conservation of the families of animals to which the pictured species belong * Contains information on Hawaiian habitats and on the most common plants you will see, and on the underwater animals most divers and snorklers actually see * Gives brief descriptions of the state's national parks and nature reserves
