Cherry blossoms at Belmont Plateau
Nearly in full bloom this morning. I should be stopping by every day to capture their peak blossoms

First, Mother Nature equipped our spirits for the last part of our ride home (see next post—traffic photo).

The 'ohi'a lehua are flowering at my place. Most 'ohi'a have red flowers, but they do vary. Here's our one yellow 'ohi'a.

When an 'ohi'a is in full flower, you can sometimes walk under it and hear it buzzing with bees.

Interestingly, when I was up at volcanoes national park last week, most of the 'ohi'a were not flowering. I wonder if that's due to the elevation difference (the park is much higher elevation than my place), or because the eruption and ash are somehow affecting the flowering cycle, or both, or something else entirely
