’Io
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.
A bench at the zoo
What I like about this bench at Pana’ewa Zoo & Gardens in Hilo, is that two can sit on it.

Made you look
Exhibitors at the Hilo Orchid Show are not above displaying a bit of whimsy!
A quiet but colorful bird
I liked this bird in a display at the Hilo Orchid Show.

One of the waiting areas at the Hilo Benioff Medical Center.
Coconut Island
Coconut Island, or Mokuola, is a small island in Hilo Bay. It’s connected to Hilo by the footbridge seen on the right in this photo. I took this photo when I was in Hilo recently and realized that I’ve never been across the footbridge. I didn’t have time that day, but it’s definitely on my list to do next time I’m in town.
Habenaria Medusa orchid
Another flower from the Hilo Orchid Show. These flowers were tiny and so delicate, I would never have thought they were an orchid without the handy label.
