Eight Fluffy Baby Birds Helicoptered to Hawaii




The birds, which have shag carpet-like plumage, are endangered Newell's shearwater chicks.

Eight fluffy baby football-sized birds were just helicoptered to a scenic Hawaiian wildlife refuge in a conservation effort that was years in the making. 

The birds, which have shag carpet-like plumage, are endangered Newell's shearwater chicks that scientists hope will become healthy reproducing adults and the founders of a new colony on the Hawaiian island of Kauai.
