While zooming in using Google Maps I saw something out of the ordinary, take a look.  The neighborhood, Moanalua Gardens, is near the Honolulu Airport.The airplane seems abnormally close to the ground, however it's hard to say for sure. Years ago I was a private pilot and routinely flew in and out of Honolulu Airport. The plane appears to be heading to the airport for a landing and I'd expect its altitude to be around 1,500-2,000 feet above sea level at this location. The photo seems to indicate the plane was flying at a lower than normal altitude.Have you ever zoomed in on a Google Map and seen a small airplane flying before?  It's the first time for me.  If you are curious about the exact location, the name of the thoroughfare is Ala Mahamoe Street.Aloha, MikeMike Bates (Realtor Assoc...

What to do if you find feral kittens on O'ahu“Kitten Season” is a phrase used by animal welfare organizations nationwide, to describe the massive influx of kittens and mother cats admitted to shelters in the US. On the continent and in most states, Kitten Season begins around spring and lasts through early winter. In Hawaiʻi, however, Kitten Season may last all year due to our tropical environment. It is during this time of year that Feral cats start reproducing and continue to have several litters.

Tatau: Marks of Polynesia until July 4th, 2022at the Bishop Museum I like to think we as human beings are works of art… in progress. We project our life’s story through many mediums and the human body being the most immediate, is no exception. Body art and modification are ancient forms of expression and the Bishop Museum is offering a glimpse of one particular Polynesian tradition popular here in Hawai’i. Tattooing has long been held as not just a practice in art but also a way to tell stories through art, through the intimate painting of one's body. Samoa's tatau is one of the world's most distinct tattoo traditions. It is an indigenous art form dating back 2,000 years, and has played a pivotal role in the preservation and propagation of Samoan culture. In Samoa, tufuga ta tatau (mast...
