The Kona Nightingales (Burro) are invasive feral animals on the Kona Coast of Hawai'i Island.
Ranchers don't like them because they knock down fences.

Recently a rancher near Kona rounded up a number of them and gave them away to get rid of them.
My neighbor picked up two of them.

Old timers in Kona gave them the name of Garden Nightingales because they would hear them in their gardens at night. Nowadays they are known as Kona Nightingales. They are found from Kona to South Kohala.

I hope they don't show up in my garden. They eat everything!
