Here it is the Cattle Egret (Bubulcus ibis)
Here are some of the lizard that are very common at the garden surrounding the apartment and the golf course. The little lizards are very likely what that the beautiful bird is up to.
Green Anole (Anolis carolinensis)
The little one was repeatedly protracting and retracting its dewlap.
Brown Anole (Anolis sagrei)
Since we have jet lag, we get the chance to see this "little"fellow at 5am. This snail was astonishing huge and it is probably a Giant African land Snail, although it is hard to tell since I don't know much about snails and it was really dark. There is a interesting site explaining stories about unique snails in Hawaii, some of them prey on other snails and slugs (yes, predators of their own species!!!)
The same site also explains some curious details about the lizards mentioned above.
Other than that we are having a extremely beautiful family time at the island. Here are some examples (although I don't use to post family pics, this is one exception due to my happiness :)
