		This recent colonist's numbers appear to have peaked and the population has dwindled to just a few birds and it is unclear whether the species will survive as a breeding Hawaiian bird, as of 2001 no birds are known to be nesting at Aimakapa.
		Adults arrive in early March and numbers increase before a pre-breeding exodus of about two weeks, after this time thousands of birds return just before dark and their loud moaning and groaning noises, likened to a crying baby, can be heard all around.
