Hawaii’s Endangered Birds by Marian Berger

Alala Pila, Marian Berger

November 9, 2013 - March 17, 2014

This was a showing of original watercolors commissioned to be in the style of John James Audubon, who never did the birds of the islands. This was the first showing of this beautiful work by Hawaiian artist Marian Berger on the mainland. The original exhibition also brought awareness to the San Diego Zoo’s Conservation Research Institute and their work with endangered Hawaiian birds and other species.

The Wildling Museum had an excursion to San Diego in March 2014 to accompany the show. A very special opportunity for a behind-the-scenes visit to both the San Diego Safari Park and the San Diego Zoo! Proceeds from the excursion will benefit both the Zoo’s Hawaii Endangered Bird Conservation Program and the Wildling Museum. Learn more here
