#HFS2018

I started this Blog when I first started working with the North Lake College Summer Hawaiian Field Studies course. I knew that in 2 weeks, I would learn so much and I needed a place to document it. I was right. I went back through my pictures when I got home and thought, "Did we stop here? I don't remember this!". So I went back to my Blog and was reminded of that moment. So many great moments, so many great stories...here is where I document them. Please read, enjoy, send me questions, comments, etc.

I will be streaming live using Periscope on my Twitter Page. Follow me @Laronna_D on Twitter and @ldoggett on Instagram

Day 5 - Keauhou Bird Conservation Center and Lava

This was the day I had been waiting for. BIRDS!! Last year we only were up at theConservation  center for a couple of hours, this time, we were up there pretty much all day. We worked on restoration of a part of land that used up be farm land.  We planted over 100 baby plants. It was an awesome experience. 

After lunch we went and heard about the birds of Hawaii. We got to see a couple of the birds that they were researching. It was wonderful!!!

We came down the mountain and went and saw a large Lava pit = large hole in the ground. We also saw a fault line. For geology, it is impressive!!

Dinner. Cold. Someone had started a fire in the pit. It was nice and cozy. 


Last stop...Jagger Museum. Here you can see the Lava glow. It was rainy, so it was a little hazy, but impressive none-the-less.
