I felt like I was there with you! Thank you for sharing! I can relate to the excitement and disappointment of thinking you've found something 'exciting' only to realize that it's 'common' or even considered to be a pest. I used to love watching house sparrows, until I learned that they were invasive. Funny how that knowledge changed my emotional reaction to them. But you're right. Life is life, and it is unfolding before our eyes. And even the most invasive species has a story to tell that is worth hearing. Thanks for writing one! Oh and your story made me wish that I were in a Hawaiin rain forest right now! :)

If not a hero, at least a fellow traveler. ❤️
