R and R around Kauai

 


I didn’t take this picture, but we have been watching a population of up to 5 anoles at one time near our river pool. Two Brown anole males were bobbing heads and flashing their orange dewlap yesterday.  One did pushups, and others ran adjacent ones off their rocks.   Sometimes we see only three, but they are always out on the rocks in the same place.  Anoles are a type of fence-lizard sized iguana.  Little Hawaiian doves, cattle egrets, and a long-legged shore bird are always around the river pool with its draping tropical greenery and beautiful flowers.

We are having a lazy last few days— going on small hikes near Kapa’a and just lazing about in the river pool and hot tubs. On one of the beach trails, we saw whales again in close but none were leaping, only occasional backs revealed. 



Today we will enjoy the resort again, then organize and finally pack as we have to leave early tomorrow.
