The Hawaiian Feathered Friends Network (HFFN) is Hawaii’s Premiere Network of bird and parrot enthusiasts. HFFN is a 501C3 nonprofit organization.
Our mission is to gather, network, and socialize in a friendly and supportive atmosphere, educate the bird community in the Hawaiian Islands, rescue birds in need, support the the bird owning community, and advocate to maintain our rights to own/ keep/breed birds in the islands. We promote the highest standard of care for our feathered companions so they may enjoy happy, healthy, and long lives.
To facilitate our mission, HFFN holds monthly meetings and runs several outreach groups on FaceBook in addition to the organization’s FaceBook page: Hawaii Parrot Forum and Hawaii Parrot & Bird Lost and Found List.
MEETINGS
Meetings are usually held on the 3rd Sunday of the Month from 12 noon till 4 pm (or when the last person leaves). Meeting dates are regularly posted on our Facebook page. Meetings are held at Moanalua Park (1289 Mahiole Street) which is right beside Moanalua Gardens. Directions to the park are below. This premier Honolulu bird club meets under the Big Tree or at the pavilion. A map is posted below to show the location of the tree in proximity to the pavilion. If you have trouble finding the meeting, please call 808-294-7382. A Google Pin will take you to the back stairs that leads directly to the big tree. The park has beautiful scenery, is clean, and provides a wonderful photo backdrop for our beautiful birds. We begin with a Potluck lunch and introduce and mingle with members. Once everyone is settled in, we start our meeting with either a topic/agenda item or a guest speaker. If you are interested, please come to a meeting and get to know us, there is no obligation to join.
