One of the 3 terns in the K3’s tree may be Asa, our most recent chick.
Listen carefully and you’ll hear her high-pitch cries.
This is MY Kukui Nut Tree! • 02.25.25
At least two white tern pairs are “battling” to “own” the kukui nut tree by the small structure on the makai playground!
The pushing and shoving for ownership can get testy!

Ame 雨 & Hinata 日向 • 03.13.24 & 03.14.24
Wednesday • 03.13.24
In the past few days, Ame 雨 has been hop-flying from branch to branch in her kukui nut tree. It can take a few minutes to find her!
And then we caught Ame 雨 flying, mainly “hovering” within the shade of her kukui nut tree. These are our first “good” shots of Ame 雨 flying.
All the while, Hinata 日向 appeared to grow (and get fluffier) day by day! She’s also be practicing being super cute.
On Wednesday, Ame 雨 enjoyed showing off her wings!
And what beautiful wings they are!
THURSDAY • 03.14.24
Ame 雨 grew bolder Thursday, even peeping out from under the canopy!
Hinata 日向 is still about 3 weeks behind Ame 雨.
Naptime!
We can expect our new chick… early April?

Fingers crossed we’ll have a new egg & chick soon! Maybe two!
Keep your eyes out in the kukui-nut trees over the Starbucks entrance gate.
Sleepy Tern Day
Bad & Good (Tern) News
Sadly, during the gale-force winds, our almost-fully-developed egg fell and broke. That’s the bad news.
The good news is that several Manu-o-Ku (white tern) pairs are actively checking-out spots for future eggs!

From time to time, Asahi 旭 has been left all by her lonesome!
