Red-crested Cardinal, since CoL doesn't seem to have that name. These are native to South America, but was introduced to Hawaii, where it does quite well for itself. Pretty much every morning toward the end of breakfast, one of these or a pair of Mynas or Zebra Doves would come calling, looking for crumbs.

This is a juvenile red-crested cardinal, sometimes called a Brazilian cardinal. It's not native to Hawaii (duh) but it's always hopping around here so I thought I'd add it.

Cool to see the immature, bronze-crested fledgling. Screaming to be fed.

Inquisitive Mom... This might be my last posting for the trip. I've got an hour in the morning before I need to get to the airport where I think I'm gonna try for Chinese Swallowtail back in the Bot Garden. Saw it twice today and...may be my only chance ever again to photo it. Amazing, amazing trip.
