In 2004, Michelle Obregon designed this mural in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, called Birds of Paradise. This detail shows two Java Sparrows, an Alala crow and a flock of Nene Geese. This breed of goose is endemic to Hawaii and is the state bird. Eight other Hawaiian birds are beautifully illustrated in this mural but not shown in the photo. It is located on the side of the Hale Halawai Park building on Alii Drive. Ms. Obregon is a graphic arts teacher at Konawaeana High School.
