East side, 2/4/19

I used my wide: 16-35 lens

Lanai Lookout...

I like this place with its wind blown surfaces.

Blowhole...

This first one is to the right, above "Eternal Beach".

I posted this on social media - The "Blowhole" Lookout now has these on the ground. How cool is that?

Makapu`u Lookout...

Koko Head Crater Botanical...

Here I used my zoom: 70-200 lens

We were very fortunate the weather was perfect - no rain and it was not hot. However, we were disappointed - no whales. Then off to "Fat Boys" for some grinds.

Waimea Valley Park, 1/20/19

Lol, the guys had to endure my driving. We were very fortunate to have good weather, although it was slightly humid the sun was not baking us. 

I took the liberty of moving this beautiful leaf.

Although blurry, I feel it created a cool effect.

This is my favorite spot.

I heard the guys muttering as I was driving back, "we need a nap".

Zoo, 1/6/19

Happy 2019 everyone! Amazing - it is a new year already!

We were fortunate that the weather was not hot and not cold.

Hmmm? Spider webs!!! This is the cage of two owls. I could not take a good photo so I decided to focus on yes the webs.

This bird fell asleep but I waited until he got up. I saw earlier that he had pretty orange eyes.

We found this view since his back was turned to us on the other side. I did my best to get this shot.

Although Rusty and Violet remain separated, they are given time in both habitats. The zoo has made it nicer. They even cleaned the glass of the large area where Rusty is. Thank goodness things have been added to make their spaces better.
