Kauai was our first big trip since Iceland in 2019,  after 2 years of avoiding Covid and Grand-dog sitting for 8 months. I am breaking down my trip photos, I have SO many to share.  Every day of our trip started out with watching the sunrise in front of our hotel. 


Click on photos for better viewing. 



The rest of the day was driving to various spots to snorkel, sightsee and bird watching. 


1. Me and my shadow, views of the beach at Lawai, Zebra Dove, White-tailed Tropicbirds at Wailua Waterfalls, chickens, Hawaiian Stilts. 




2. The Zebra Doves are pretty, A common bird seen on the island.




3. Chickens are everywhere in Kauai. 




4. Wailua Waterfalls




5. The White-tailed Tropicbirds were flying around the cliffs at the Wailua Waterfalls, they are beautiful birds but hard to capture in flight. 




6. Menehune Fish Pond overlook




7. A good distance away at the Menehune Fish Pond I was able to find the Hawaiian Stilts. 





8. The Cattle Egrets are seen all around the island, usually I saw them along the road while driving. 




Stayed tuned, lots more Kauai photos to come, I hope you enjoyed this post.

I was missing for a week at the end of September, hubby and I were enjoying a trip to Kauai, Hawaii. We were there 32 and a half years ago and it was one of our favorite places to visit. I took over 1500 photos of scenery, flowers and birds. Maybe a few critters too. I am sharing photos from the first two days. 

1. Scenes from our hotel in Wailua Bay, the hotel had a nice view and a pond with the koi fish. Chickens had run of the place and a few cats. 




2. The Common Myna bird was seen at the resort and all around the island. They were everywhere.





3. The Zebra Dove, a lifer for me, was another common bird seen all around the island. 





4. The Roosters were seen all around, chasing other chickens away. They were crowing all day. 





5. These Roosters were plentiful, very colorful and pretty. 




6. The Red-crested Cardinals a lifer for me, they were seen in various spots too. 





7. A Green Sea Turtle seen on the Poipu Beach. 





8. The Pacific Golden Plover was another lifer and a common bird, I had sightings in various spots around the island. 




9. This is one of the many cats seen at the resort, it seemed to like to sit in this spot in the open air lobby.
