Hawaiian Hens


This just in from my friend Marty, who had the nerve to go vacation on a tropical island in the middle of winter (without me):

Did you know there are wild chickens all over this island? Literally, all
over the island.

The chickens in this photo closed in on us like a pack of hungry wolves
while we were eating lunch at Secret Falls on the Wailua River. As we were
about to leave, one of the roosters announced some new additions to the family.
We approached to see a hen leaving three eggs in this little nest between some
rocks.

If I were a chicken, I'd want to live here too.
