I had to go back a few days for my photo for Bushboy’s Last on the Card photo challenge (see more responses here). It proved to be this praying mantis lurking on a plumeria flower stem.

Looking back at 2023
Sunday Stills challenge theme this week and next week is ‘Your 2023 Year-in-Review.’ See more responses here. As before, I’m going with a favorite photo from each month of 2023, with a caption and link to the post the photo first appeared in. This week, I’m posting favorites from January through June. See the rest of the year next week.
Three horses
On Kohala Mountain Road there’s an outfit called Paniolo Adventures that offers horseback rides on an 11,000 acre working cattle ranch. Once in a while I stop by to check out the horses. I saw these three on my last visit. This would make a good album cover I think!
For more information about Paniolo Adventures, go to panioloadventures.com.
Agapanthus
On a recent visit to Waimea, I found these Agapanthus flowers in bloom. They seem to flower year round in that area.
Sailing by
A sailboat glides over the water off the North Kohala coast, an image that doesn’t look much different in color.
Beautiful plumage
It’s not a Norwegian Blue Parrot, but I thought this hen’s feathers were quite lovely. This also marks eight years of daily posts on this blog! This could explain the hen’s expression!
Catching the light
There are many things I like about chubs. One is how they swim near the water’s surface and catch the light beautifully.
Season’s greetings
I’m sure this cheerful reindeer would like to join me in wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
