Highfin Chubs are quite common around here, but a bit shy about being photographed, at least in my experience. This group were headed towards shallower water when I saw them.

Koki’o ‘Ula’Ula flower
Koki’o ‘Ula’Ula is a native hibiscus which is rare in the wild, but available in nurseries. This one is a bit past its prime. I’ll have to go back to where I saw it at Kohanaiki to see if I can get a more robust bloom. Posted for Terri’s Flower Hour. See more responses here.

The Hornworm Tachinid Fly is considered a beneficial insect because it lays its eggs on caterpillars, which can decimate many varieties of plants. However, that also means it’s an enemy of Monarch Butterflies, which I don’t approve of, because it will do the same to their caterpillars.
