We had payed a visit to Ulua Lagoon 4 for a swim and tanning. I has seen those black swans on our way there. I hoped they would still be there when we left. And they were. I sould see 4 of them but photograping was hard as we were on teh main road and could not stop. Just moving slowly forward. Well, I got these shots so I´m happy. 

When I was young they had a pair of swans in a country museum .  One black and one white. They formed a heart with their heads for a moment. So beautiful and my camera misbehaved ,  it was long before digital era. I only got half the shot.   :(

This was the closest I came to the Frigate bird. It was chased by a lot of green parrots. Probably the Rose-ringed Parakeet. There was lots of them. The parakeets did not seem to like having the Frigatebird in the area. Reminded me of gulls and eagles. From what I can tell of the images this is a female as I can spot a white mark on her.

There was lots of white doves in Honolulu. They made you think of angels when you saw them in sunlight.
