What'd I Say : 'Anianiau in Jacaranda Tree

Hey baby tell me what'd I say! I felt like these little 'Anianiau were looking at each other and having a silly conversation, so Ray Charles' song "What'd I Say" came to mind.

The 'Anianiau is the smallest Hawaiian honeycreeper and they are bright yellow (female is just a bit duller than the male). I made them nice and plump, nestling on a flowering Jacaranda branch.

If you haven't seen a Jacaranda in person, they are stunning. When in bloom, the Jacaranda is an explosion of purpleness! It's best to enjoy them in someone else's yard however, because the clean up post-season is brutal...
