As a follow-up to David's post on the albatross, I was searching for
news from tsunami effects on the NW Hawaiian islands during lunch.
Several reports online, a few links below.  'Wisdom' and her chick
(the bird from David's post) were on higher ground and survived as
did the Short-tailed Albatross chick (first nesting for Hawai'i) but
many birds were lost ... either swept out to sea or buried in their
burrows.  Laysan Island was hit hard and much of the island washed
over.  The research crew there rode out the tsunami in the hurricane
shelter but their camp was damaged and they have been evacuated.
Too early to know the fate of the Laysan Finches, but they have
survived much including rabbits eating all vegetation from the
island.
