Hawaiian Geese (Nene) recorded
per party hr on the Kapa'a Christmas Count, Kaua'i, 1971-2014 (see Count
Page). The increasing trend during the
1990-2000s primarily reflects reintroduction programs initiated at
Kilauea NWR in 1991. Graphs of Christmas Count data developed as part
of The Birds of the Hawaiian Islands: Occurrence, History, Distribution, and
Status by Robert L. Pyle and Peter Pyle
