I gotta look this up… it’s huge!
Itʻs a Band-Tailed Pigeon!
I finished Carol’s Mt Rainier hat by Nancy Bates. Bittersweet because Carol will never wear it, but I will wear it in her memory.

    Your Rainier hat is gorgeous. What a beautiful way to keep Carol’s memory.
    I love all of your bird and flower photos. That Band-Tailed pigeon is ENORMOUS.
    Do you have Amazon Prime Video? We watched a 53-minute program, narrated by Sir David Attenborough, on hummingbirds last night. It was fascinating.

      Mahalo nui for what you wrote. I will wear the hat in Carol’s memory… probably with a bit of wai maka, too. Yeah, the pigeon was huge!! He hasn’t been back so far as I can tell. We do have Prime and I’ll definitely check out the hummingbird program…I really like Sir David.
