Opis
Hosmer Grove is a tract of former experimental forest on the slopes of the Haleakala volcano, within the namesake Haleakala National Park. The area contains large trees, many of which have been imported from around the world, as well as several key native species ('ohi'a lehua, koa, olapa, mamane and others) that provide food and habitat for Maui's endemic and introduced birdlife. Several native species are common at this site, including Iiwi , Apapane, and Hawaii Amakihi. The island endemic Maui Alauahio can be found here easily with a bit more effort. Maui's two rarest endemics, Akohekohe and Maui Parrotbill (aka Kiwikiu), have historically been recorded at this site, but are exceedingly rare and should not be expected. Outside the tall forest of the grove itself, more open-habitat species can be found on the nearby slopes of Haleakala, including Short-eared Owl (Hawaiian) , Pacific Golden Plover (winter), and Hawaiian Goose. As elsewhere in Hawaii, introduced species are also common, and likely species in the forest include Warbling White-eye, Japanese Bush Warbler, Red-billed Leiothrix, Chinese Hwamei, Common Myna, House Sparrow, House Finch, Red-crested Cardinal and Northern Cardinal. Introduced species are also common in the open habitat surrounding the grove, including several gamebirds (Ring-necked Pheasant, Chukar, Grey Francolin), Spotted Dove, Zebra Dove, Eurasian Skylark and Northern Mockingbird.

Hosmer Grove is located off the Haleakala Highway, which is reached by car from the foothill town of Kula on Maui's eastern half, and continues to the summit of Haleakala. Parking for the site is located 16 km after the start of the Haleakala Highway off Kekaulike Ave. Press P on the map for directions. Hosmer Grove has a 0.8 km dirt trail through the forest. The trail is relatively even and suitable for most walkers, but is not wheelchair-accessible, and parts of the trail can be uneven or contain exposed roots.
