Description
AloooooooHa~
This is the Hawaiian Amakihi (Ama-kee-hee) or honey-creeper. Each island has their own version of the Amakihi, this is the Big Islands.
This little guy has been around my yard for a couple years now. He loves to land on my car antenna and look at himself in my car mirror. Every time I come out of the house he flies to the same spot in a tree nearby. I set my camera up on my upstairs lanai focused on this tree. I came outside and watched him fly into the tree. I then ran upstairs and got this shot of him hanging out in the tree.
This is his 15 minutes of fame....
Hope everyone had a great Halloween and are not nursing too many hangovers. Have a great weekend everyone and thanks for dropping by~ Aloha~
