Ka Nohoʻana a me ka Holoʻana:

Ua makemake nā manu pīpī i ka hale mālama, nā wahi i hūnāʻia e like me ka ululāʻau, nā ululāʻau a me nā āpau o ka'āpana'āina , a ua loaʻa iā lākou i loko o kēlā me kēia'āpana kuʻuna aiʻole nā'āpana kūmole a me nā coniferous ā hiki i ka 6,500 kapuaʻi ke kiʻekiʻe.

ʻO ka Hikina Komohana ka poʻe e noho nei ma kaʻaoʻao hema oʻAmelika Huipūʻia, mai Florida a hiki loa i ka'ākau a me ke komohana ma Massachusetts ma ka hikina, hema hema o Pennsylvania, hema o Ohio, hema o Iowa a me Kansas hikina. I ka wā o ke kauwela, hoʻonui lākou i ke kūkulu'ākau i ka hema o Ottawa a me Michigan, Wisconsin a me Minnesota a hiki i Manitoba a me Nebraska hikina. I ka hoʻoilo, e pālahalaha nui ana kaʻaoʻao hema o ka hikina a hiki i nā wahi hikina o Texas a me Oklahoma.

Ke nānāʻia nā mea nānā i nā manawa kūpono ma ke komohana o kēia mau manu i manaʻoʻia, aʻo kahi mamao loa aku i ka'ākau i Newfoundland. Uaʻike nuiʻia kaʻikeʻana i nāʻike ma Great Britain.

Nā Mahi:

He mele ke kani hula nei kēia mau manu a me kahi pahu kani i ka hopena. ʻO ka lua o nā meleʻelua e hōʻike pinepineʻia me ka "drink-thy-tea" me ke mele. ʻO kahi maʻamau,ʻo keʻano wikiwiki, heʻano maʻamau, a he ala kūpono kūpono ma ka hope o ka pihi.

Nā hana :

ʻO kēia nā manu manu huna, a me nā manu huna e makemake ana e hūnā i ka'ōpala, akā hiki i nā kāne ke koho i nā pele o ka mele, ma kahi pūnāwai paha ke'ōlelo nei lākou i nā'āina a me ka hukiʻana i nā wāhine. I ka wā o ke kauwela a me ke kauwela, hiki ke noho pālua i ka hānaiʻana, akā, hiki i nā kāne ke kū'ē i nā kāne'ē aʻe a hiki ke hoʻohana i nā hōʻike weliweli e hōʻike i ko lākou ikaika.

I ka hoʻolālāʻana, e hoʻohana ana kēia mau manu i ka hopena o ka hopena i hope e hoʻomaʻemaʻe i nā lau a iʻole nā'ūpala'ē aʻe a me nā'ōpala a me nā'ōpala. I ka wā e hana ai, pinepine lākou i nā hili e hoʻonuiʻia.

Hōʻano houʻia:

ʻO kēia nā manu manuʻopiʻi e pili ana ma hope o ka hoʻokuʻuʻana o ke kāne i kahi wahine ma ka hōʻikeʻana i kona mau kihi kihi, akā hiki iā ia ke kipaku iā ia ma mua o ka hoʻomaopopoʻana i kona alo. Hana ka wahine i kahi pūnana puni me ka lāʻau, ka mauʻu, nā rootlets a me nā'āpana o kaʻili, e kāwili ana i ka ipu i loko me nā meaʻoi aku. Hiki ke kūkuluʻia ka punana ma luna o ka lepo a iʻole ma kahi mau lāʻau liʻiliʻi,ʻaʻoleʻoi aku ma mua o elima kapuaʻi ma luna o ka lepo, akā ua hoʻopaʻaʻia kekahi mau pūnana kiʻekiʻe.

ʻO nā hua manu oval he pale, heʻeleʻele keʻokeʻo a he grayish a ke kīkohuʻia me nā meaʻulaʻula, ulaʻula-hina a hina paha i hiki ke hoʻonuiʻia ma ka hopena nui o ka pū.

Aia nā huahelu he 2-6 no ke poʻo , aʻo ka wahine e hoʻopili i nā hua no nā lā 12-13. Ma hope o ka'ōpiopio'ōpiopio, hānai nā mākua i nā moa no 10-12 mau lā. Hiki i nā mākua ke hānai i nā keiki he 1-3 i kēlā me kēia makahiki, me nā keiki he nui iʻoi aku ma nāʻaoʻao hema o kaʻaoʻao hikina.

ʻO kēia mau manu he mau pūʻulu pinepine ia i nā hulu manu lāpili'ōmaʻomaʻo , a ma kahi o ka launa e uhi ai me ka ula i kelepa i ka Plains Nui, he mea maʻalahi ka hoʻohuiʻana.

Ke alakaʻi nei i nā koina o ke Komohana:

ʻOiai e malu ana kēia mau manu, e hele mai lākou i nā hale hānai manu e mālama pono ai i nā mea kanu, nā mea kanu a me nā pihi kāpili. Hiki iā lākou ke hele i nā wahi hānaiʻai'āina a iʻole nā mea halihali nui, nā haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa inā loaʻa nā kānana , milo, millet, ʻai , a me nā puʻu pīnī. Hiki i ka wai o ka manu manu ke kōkua i kaʻonoʻana i ka wai o ka hikina, a laila, hiki lākou i ka hoʻouluʻana i ka papa.

Hoʻomalu:

ʻOiaiʻaʻole i manaʻoʻia kēia mau manu i ka hoʻoweliweli a iʻole i ka pōʻino, ua emi iho ka heluna kanaka, ma ka'ākau'ākau o ko lākou āpau. ʻO ka hoʻomauʻana i ka uluʻana o ka'āina e pili ana i ka hala o ka nohoʻana, he mea nui ia i kēia hāʻuleʻana, aʻo ka hopena o nā'ōpiopio e hoʻokuʻu ana i nā kumu kai o ka hikina hikina kahi pilikia.
