ALOHA... Day 4

We went to the Rainforest Zoo. Before we even got inside, we had lunch with one of the locals!


There were lots of animals, to include a great collection of birds like parrots and mackaws, but
the free-roaming peacocks (tons of them) were the biggest hit with us. In fact, this picture takes place while a white tiger was eating his dinner right across the street. The tiger was devouring
raw chickens literally within 5 feet of us, but I was more interested in the peacocks and chickens
having their dinner nearby.


Courting

After the zoo, we enjoyed the views of Rainbow Falls, just north of Hilo.

Evan,
What a great experience to be there when the peacocks strut their stuff! It seems that each day held something new for you.
Love, Oma

That girl peacock didn't seem too impressed, did she? : )
