Suspicious BBQ




I paid a visit to turtle rock... on my way to the showers to rinse off the saltwater....






my nose was assaulted with a weird BBQ smell....






I'm pretty sure a man there was cooking a turtle on his BBQ grill.





He saw me staring and covered it...







Its been a long week.... To think that some of the turtles I take pictures of are no longer alive saddens me.


Ive called every single authority I could think of. They are working to make sure it was not a turtle.



The residents who live in the Big homes on the beach where turtle rock is were horrified when i let them know what i saw and smelt.


They have hand made signs on the beach to make sure people KNOW even touching a turtle is not legal!







I really hope I was wrong..... God Bless our Ocean friends...

How sad, how hopeful at the same time, knowing that you care, that you act.
Please have a good Friday.

Returning Home

It is time for me to return to the North Shore full time. It is at Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu, that I sit and wait for the tell tale ripples of water that signal the DOLPINS have arrived! The water calming down from the massive winter waves that just a few weeks ago pounded this side of the island, i return to her shores full time with glee! I will be subjected to the teasing of the regulars at the Bay who jokingly say, "Wheres the dolphins, Lani?" I always say in my mind, "There are far worse places I would need to wait!" LOLOL. This weekend the Bay gave a sneak performance of how magnificent her waters will be! Clear beautiful water, clean beautiful sand, the sun creating stain glass window like patterns on the sandy sea floor. And if that isn't enough the days of spring and summer on the North shore of Oahu, end with sunsets that are just magic!
