Gumbo's Pic of the Day, Aug. 24, 2014: Chicken Hawaiian Style

IMG_0665a

We went to Hawaii expecting surf, mountains, palms, pineapples and all the rest...but no one told us about the chickens! Here and there around the islands we found them...on the beach, on mountain trails, in parking lots. Sometimes one or two, sometimes a small flock, but always in beautiful colors like these.

I can't imagine why this isn't the state bird: Much more elegant and somehow Hawaiian than the nene, or Hawaiian goose!

The best part of every trip is realizing that it has upset your expectations
