I looked out of my bathroom window the other day and noticed two things. One was this Green Anole on the Ti plant by the side of the house. The other was that the Ti plant had grown so tall, it was now blocking the view from the window. Later, I went out and chopped the Ti plant down to a more manageable size, checking beforehand that the anole was no longer in residence!
You know you want to!
These Oleanders were growing at Mahukona Beach Park. They had a nice scent, but are not something to be consumed as they’re quite poisonous.

I saw these two Fourspot Butterflyfishes happily nibbling on this coral head. If you look closely, you can see a small Arc-eye Hawkfish nestled in the coral, just behind and below the butterflyfishes. It looks a little anxious, probably wondering if it’s going to be nibbled next.

Numbered seating at the Edith Kanaka’ole Stadium in Hilo. I reckon quite a few two-ticket people attend events there!
I was at work when I saw this bee buzzing around at the back of the building. Surely they’re not going to start a hive inside, I thought. The bee left, but when it returned I saw it was carrying a bit of a leaf. So, not a hive, but just a Leafcutter Bee nest. Clearly, it thought the hollow tube of a handle on a piece of equipment was ideal for this purpose. It was wrong. I put a piece of tape over the entrance and when the bee returned, it flitted around a bit looking for a way in. Then it disappeared outside, not to be seen again.
…Because I’m sure I’m getting wet.
