Jack's Diving Locker

Yesterday Kea Nui had a Boobie Bird visitor. Normally these birds don’t land on the boat. Upon further inspection our crew and guests noticed the bird had several fishing hooks in its wing. It was like the bird was asking for help. After several failed attempts to capture the bird (with advice from a professional) we reached out to our friends at the Hawaii Wildlife Center who sent out a bat signal to their network to be on the lookout for the injured bird. A few hours later we received word the bird had been located and captured by HWC and was being taken to their center for medical attention! We will make sure to update you if we hear anything! Yay Team! If you’re in Kona and notice an injured bird, you can let HWC know by calling 808-884-5000.
