Two shots of yesterday evening’s rainbow 🌈
I forgot to post this rainbow from yesterday evening 🌈

Hawai’i’s Coral Reefs Protected by Insurance
Sunday, April 20, 2025
Well, this I learnt (I prefer the full English to the shorthands, TIL, though they have their place in a quick text) today. Hawai’i’s coral reefs are protected from storm damage by an insurance policy.
Two views of this morning’s Easter double rainbow 🌈
Looking over a wall from Kihei in South Maui towards the West Maui Mountains as Kona storm crept in on Thursday of this last week. There was thunder,lightning and heavy rain.

A beautiful view this afternoon from the cliffs near to Ho’okipa Beach Park. The island of Moloka’i is in the distance.

⛈️ A storm approaches. The thunder is getting louder and closer.
Adolescence covered a difficult and concerning subject, and did it so well. Well worth your time…

The Bunker: Saturday 12th April, 2025

All credit to the artist(s) 🎨
It has been a while, but The Bunker has undergone some minor updates. Or maybe it is some ”edits” to what was already there? Certainly not a full blown new mural.
On Hedge Laying
Monday, April 14, 2025
James Rebanks, author of Pastoral Song : A Farmer’s Journey (do read it!), shared this photograph on BlueSky of a hedge being laid. I am guessing that it is on his farm in the Lake District in England? Rebanks’ photograph took me home, back to Britain, to a time and place that sits deeply in my heart. I’m seeing a clear winter’s day as in this picture. I’m seeing a hedge being laid, the first time that I have seen one, or at least noticed the practice of hedge laying.
I’ve just added to new page to my website, Rainbows.
Given that I post so many photos of rainbows on this site, I decided to collect them all together using Micro.blog’s Photo Collections feature. As of today there are 89 photographs of rainbows here. The page will update as I add more…as I’m sure that I will!
😮💨 I’m heading to bed tonight exhausted, but it is a good exhaustion. I was working all afternoon in the garden, made some good progress clearing overcrowding plants (hopefully the light of a new day will show that I did), and now just need to lie down. Good night 🌙

I’ve joined a writing group. We start writing this coming Thursday, instructions coming soon, write each day, meet up the following Thursday, select your best two pieces to read.
I watched season 3 of The White Lotus because I had seen the previous two seasons, but…

☕ It’s one of those nights when I’m going to bed looking forward to tomorrow morning’s coffee.
Wispy clouds at dusk.

Geckos In The Morning
Saturday, April 5, 2025
Sitting outside the other morning, drinking the first coffee of the day, I noticed leaves shaking out of sync with the early morning breeze that was blowing throw. I noticed it there, and there, and over there. Almost everywhere I looked there was a leaf or two shaking. On closer look I noticed geckos either on the leaves, or jumping down to a patch of grass that lay in the sun.
