I recently spent a week in Hawaii. Birding wasn't my focus, but I did see LOTS of birds as I toured parks and gardens near Honolulu.
Lke the Chestnut Munias and Common Waxbills, I usually saw them in groups of a half-dozen or more.
NOTE: If you'd like to see more birds and flora from Hawaii, I've created a dedicated album that contains several photos not in my Photostream.

Batavia Java
1920's Mack
500 GPM
This illustration is from a Mack fire apparatus catalog. Batavia is now Jakarta, Indonesia.
A couple of Java Sparrows hang out near the pool at our condo on Maui.
Also know as the Java finch, Java rice sparrow or Java rice bird.
This was about as best I could do with only 200mm.
Lonchura oryzivora
Vulnerable to the errors of others
Standing your ground in the confidence of humanity
Vulnerable to the wilful anger of others
Maintaining your time in place despite the inconvenience
Vulnerable to the impatience of others
Knowingly at risk and praying for mercy
The road ahead
The place of destination
My life in the hand of machines
Shield me from harm
Protect me from progress

After a few days of exploring the island with locations we wanted to go as a family, I started looking into what I hadn't photographed or hadn't seen yet that was relatively close by. I was looking for Rosy-Faced Lovebirds one afternoon close to the condo but I only came home with photos of these beauties instead.
My parents, wife, daughters, and sister's family spent the holidays on Maui together. With kids in high school, middle school, and almost out of elementary school the ages allowed for memory making with this extended family trip. I'll be adding photos from the trip with small descriptions of them.

Street in the heart of the Dutch colonial old town of Surabaya, with its Dutch colonial architecture. Specifically here Chinatown.
Surabaya was already a significant port of the Hindu Majapahit Empire (13th century to 1500s), whose capital was nearby. It was also one of the first ports on the North Coast of Java to receive significant Islamic missionary activities. In particularly, the Sufi saint Ampel from the 15th century was famous for spreading Islam from here to Java. After the fall of the Majapahit Empire, it became part of a Muslim Javanese successor state, the Mataram Sultanate. The Dutch, who slowly colonized Indonesia from Batavia/Jakarta, conquered it only in the 1750s. Soon, however, Surabaya grew into an important colonial port exporting sugar cane and tobacco from the interior.
The Dutch colonial Surabaya was divided roughly in 3 to 4 neighbourhoods: the walled Dutch town, Chinatown where the Chinese traders lived, the Muslim Ampel neighbourhood to the north, which had also an Arab community, and the old Javanese neighbourhood to the south, a remnant of the pre-colonial town.
In this street, houses from the 18th to 19th century are preserved, in a Dutch tropical style. Around the corner, splendid Art Nouveau, Art Deco, ecclectic and early modernist buildings are abundant.
Surabaya was the birthplace of Sukarno, the first president of Indonesia. Surabaya was one of the first cities in the Dutch-East Indies to proclaim independence from the Dutch in 1945, after the Japanese occupiers left. This history is still much celebrated in town.
Today, Surabaya is the second largest and most important city of Indonesia and is a modern city with much history preserved. There are lots of young people who are stimulating a vibrant coffee culture, with local Indonesian Arabica beans.
