Wildlife seen on the road to Hana




Aloha from Brian & June
We saw some interesting and beautiful wildlife on the road to Hana.
The only ceature you may not recognise is the mongoose
which was introduced to combat the rats wich were introduced to Maui from the trading ships. The other interesting example is the beautiful young virgin preparing to bathe in one of the seven sacred pools - I was unable to determine the spirtual significance. We were also going to bahe but it was too cold - being mountain water.
I will post some natural wonders next time.
June & Brian

  1. Just love the wildlife shots, especially the first one. Is she a protected species, or can you bring one back for me?
