The bird of the 808 State...

If there is a bird of 808 State I would suggest it would be the Hawaiin Goose (or 'Nene' as it is often called).

The Hawaiin Goose is the state bird of Hawaii, which is the 808 State.

For a short article on this bird go to:

For a fascinating article on the evolution of this bird go to:

Recognise!

PS The nearest spot for Graham, Darren and Andy to see the 808 State bird is probably Martin Mere Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust reserve near Ormskirk, Lancashire - they have them there.

Talking of Hawaii, has anyone else seen this?... http://www.808skate.com Hmmm.. that logo looks familiar! Nice gear for sale with the 808 logo in the shop, might be copyright problems though???

PS- Spotted an Extended Pleasures 12" on sale at http://www.plasticpassion.com.au/12singlesA-L.htm.
