Pīpī for AFK!

There have been so many flowers blooming that the daily hummingbird is hard to catch.

A very wet robin taking a bath in our pond.

Bird of Paradise… ho, I get so many this year!

House finches and a chickadee together. Seeing all these birds always brings me such joy.

We’re continuing our weekly food deliveries. In this chaotic world, it’s good to know that we can help out veterans, farm workers, and needy folks.

“My” oak tree at the retinologist’s. It’s a good time for me to find a quiet space to knit and relax while waiting for Nolemana.

Ho da kewt!!! Mom quail and her babies. I wish it were a better photo, but they kept moving so fast that it was hard to get a better one.

My friend Myrna knit these dishcloths, attached them to bottles of Dawn, and gave them to me to hand out on my food deliveries. What a wonderful blessing for folks she doesn’t even know.

It was a cool, cloudy, start to the day today, and only sunshiny over Olson Farms. I sent this photo to them so that they could see it.

Joy of joys! We had Violet-Green Swallow babies for the first time in several years! If you turn up the volume, you can hear the babies peeping! I sat out on the lānai and took this video of mom and dad feeding them.

And that’s a wrap for June. I’ve found a way to make uploading photos faster, so I’ll be posting more often now, I hope. I’ve been struggling with some depression lately, but really want to keep blogging. I so appreciate you, my readers!

    Huuuuui, Sistah, mahaloz fo da pīpī pitchas! Da white-face cow looks like it’s saying “Wot, boddah you?”

    I love your video of the swallows. Thank you for fostering and protecting beauty!

    It’s so easy to be depressed lately, even in summer. We’re pulling for you, Moki-chan. Blessings on you and your friend Myrna for the good work you’re doing.
