White-rumped Shama

Once again, as a birder visiting Hawaii, I had mixed feelings when seeing introduced species, knowing that they are somewhat responsible for the declining numbers of native species. But despite that, in many cases they are very eye-pleasing birds. I had seen the White-rumped Shama previously, in Malaysia, but not as well as I saw this one at Haena State Park on the north shore of Kaua'i.
