Huli chicken is an Hawaiian dish, first created in 1955 by Ernest Morgado of Pacific Poultry. The chicken is marinated in a sweet and savory sauce, then grilled on a rotating spit. Huli is the Hawaiian word for turn, hence the name.
These photos were taken at GJ’s Huli Chicken, which operates in Waimea on the weekends. It’s easy to tell when they’re open because the smoke drifts across the road and the aroma is unmistakable!

On the way back from Hilo last week I saw this pueo standing on a post. I stopped the car and got out to take photos. I saw immediately that the pueo was watching my progress and, before I got any decent photos, it took off and headed across the road and away from me. Since I didn’t see it above the fields there, I figured it had settled down again.
Sure enough as I got to the curve in the road I saw it on this post. I moved slowly towards it taking a few photos. Eventually, it decided I had come close enough and took off again. I saw it fly a ways up the hill and settle on yet another post. I didn’t follow, otherwise I could have ended up back in Hilo!
The idea of The Numbers Game is to enter a number into the search bar of your computer and then post a selection of the photos that turn up. This week’s number is 217. Captions are on the photos. You can see more responses here.
This ’Io (Hawaiian hawk) is a resident at Pana’ewa Zoo & Gardens in Hilo. Seeing birds in a cage like this is a bit depressing to me, but this is a rescue bird and, because of injuries, it would not survive long in the wild. It did at least give me the chance to see it and appreciate what a majestic bird it is.
What I like about this bench at Pana’ewa Zoo & Gardens in Hilo, is that two can sit on it.

I like to think that the one Nene wanted a drink of water, but the sprinkler wasn’t cooperating, so the Nene threw a tantrum!
