I don’t know why people can’t just say in the title…they aren’t getting paid on Lemmy

Kealia Pond National Wildlife Refuge in Maui

About a 15 min drive. I haven’t been that way for a couple of weeks.

Nice, hope you can catch this and maybe snap some pics!

Can confirm. I figured those photos were color enhanced but it’s even more shocking in person, like a flourescent deep Pepto Bismal. Photos don’t really do it justice.

It would probably be even more intense, but it’s really overcast today. Hopefully we’ll get some rain!
