The 'IWA is the great frigate seabird known to Hawaii.  This bird is large and graceful seabird, related to the Boobies and tropicbirds.  The 'IWA's body is slim, with a long deeply forked tail, long hooked bill, and almost useless legs and feet.

'IWA means "thief" and FRIGATE refers to the fast ships used by pirates.

Adult female 'IWA's are larger than males, and are black with white breast patch and gray throat.  They primary food source is through flyingfish and squid.
