Dumb or what? They really were blonde! I had never seen such huge blonde bumble bees before.  They were about 1.5” head to toe! There were two of them, and all they did was hover, looking directly at  me, and buzzzz very loudly at me…

They were so persistent that I went back up the driveway to get my camera, in hope that they would still be there when I got back. And sure enough, they were. And they were still hovering!!! If i moved, they followed, and just hovered again, facing me head on…  They never got closer than about 4ft and hovered at my eye level.  Quite extraordinary! SO I snapped away until the sun went down.

I thought I would share some with you so you would believe me…  They were gone the next day, and I haven’t seen (or heard) them again since…  Bizarre, but just so cute.

Lizards in Haiku, Maui

My cat Guinness brought my attention to the lizards in the garden yesterday. They are wise to him. They see him and they dont move. Same with me, they saw me and they didnt move…  They come out to bask in the last rays of sun in the afternoons. So I  just had to go get my camera…

2009 went out with a big BANG, well lots actually. I had a birds eye view of about 9 different firework displays from where I was at midnight seeing in the new year of 2010.

 

 

But Dawn and Dusk on New Years Eve were even more spectacular and rare!!! New Years eve brought a Blue Moon – which means the second full moon in one month and not the colour ‘Blue’..  I snapped some photographs of the Blue Moon at dawn AND dusk. Here are some .. The next New Years Eve Blue Moon wont occur again until 2028

DAWN – New years eve…

What a great Chrismas Day! Jaws was breaking for at least the fourth time this month and I was there again for the fourth time. It was another  Hugewave  day, and the crowds were out in huge numbers on the cliff tops again, watching, filming and photographing the surfers, toe in surfing, at JAWS. The helicopters were not around today, guess because it was December the 25th. but everyone was happy to be there on such a glorious day.  What better way is there than to spend the first few hours of Xmas day on the cliffs watching JAWS, and the surfers.   Check out my photo gallery of my selection of photos by clicking the link aboe.

Not only were the waves big yesterday, on the 7th December  but they stayed big on the 8th and the 9th too. So here are more photographs of Surfers surfing the huge waves at Jaws, tow-in surfing with their surfing buddies, on the 8th and the 9th.

JAWS – PHOTO GALLERY SLIDESHOW

The surfers and their buddies on the jetskis were out in large  numbers. The rescue boats were there too of course. The swell started early this morning and by 11am some of the sets coming in were huge. I arrived to take these photos around 9.30 am just as all the locals were leaving to go to work. The pinapple field had a traffic jam i both directions, but it was worth it! Totally worth it. Some serious photographers camped in their trucks and had a great spot first thing this morning, but i have no complaint, i had a great spot too, in the shade.  I got the best weather of the day, even though when i left the waves were still building, the clouds had arrived and a north easterly wind had arrived, which made the waves surfaces pretty choppy.  By the time i arrived home, i heard a report thru the grapevine that three jet skis had been totalled on the rocks at the bottom of the cliffs.
