I took these photographs while looking out from our lanai in Hawaii. The finches are a little hard to see. Can you find them?
There are four in this photo. . .
But not in this one . . .
Incoming!! Looks like the fella on the left may have a contender for the lovely lady’s affections.
Oooh! Her head has been turned!
But not for long . . .
Someone new swoops in . . .
Handsome!
Island Canary (aka Atlantic Canary)
Silhouetted bird . . .
Definitely not from the finch family . . .
On my last full day in Hawaii, I grabbed my camera and stepped out the front door after one of the many rains we had. Sweetie is coming home tonight. The critters and I have missed him very much.
Another shot from our evening out on Waikiki Beach.
Mostly it’s been all work and no play. We head home tomorrow morning.
Sweetie, Brother and Sister-in-Law and I took some “us” time last night. We sat in a cabana at the Mai Tai Bar at the Royal Hawaiian hotel (the oldest hotel on Waikiki Beach), enjoyed our drinks, talked, laughed, and of course, enjoyed the sunset.
We weren’t the only ones . . .
Building sand castles
Sailboats and a lone surfer
Watchers and photographers
Silhouettes
Running errands, clearing out junk and packing boxes doesn’t leave much time for seeing the sights, but here is the view from around the neighborhood.
There is a reason why people want to live here…
