Hawaiian Ducks (Koloa) recorded per party hr on the
Honolulu Christmas
Count, 1944-2007 (see Count
Page), showing a peak in observations during
the
1970s-1990s, due to re-propogation
programs, followed by a decline through the
2000s. Most observations of
these ducks after the 1990s were identified as hybrids
with Mallard.
