Residents Of Waikiki (Waterfowl and Koi)

"O Lord, what a variety of things You have made!  In wisdom You have made them all.  The earth is full of Your creatures."  Psalm 104:24


Drake Wood Ducks

White-faced Whistling Duck

Black-Necked Swan

Lesser Flamingos

Hungry Koi 

These photographs were taken at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Waikiki and are a sampling of some of the non-human residents there.   I go there as often as I can to just enjoy them and take new photos.  Below is a view of Diamondhead, an extinct volcano, as seen from the beach at the Hilton.


This will be a good reference photo for a new painting.   I hope you enjoyed your visit here today and please  return again soon.

Ala Moana Beach Park - Honolulu

"The sun will not rise or set without my notice and thanks."  - Winslow Homer




The above photographs were taken at sunrise at Ala Moana Beach Park in Honolulu .   It is a wonderful family park, although rather crowded later in the day.  My favorite time to visit there is at sunrise.


This clearly shows the marina across from the park looking towards Diamond Head, the famous extinct volcano which is located in Waikiki, about a 10 minute or less drive from Ala Moana Beach Park.   

These photos are rather peaceful, and here is wishing you a peaceful and productive day !
