In the United States, the only other place to see them is in south Florida, where they have become more and more common since first reported in 1983.
I took these shots on Oahu with a Canon PowerShot through my 7x42 Zeiss binoculars.

It doesn't appear to be the SL subspecies: melanosturnus, which as the name suggests is dark breasted.
The post orbital patch in this bird, as in some other birds that find food on the ground is shaped somewhat like a beak and similarly coloured too. It is a 'pseuo beak' in my opinion. This gives the impression that it is looking backwards in its 'pseuod-face'. This in my opinion is an adaptation to deter ground predators who would usually attack when the prey is unaware.
