The More

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Be different. Be original.
Nobody will remember a
specific flower in a garden filled
with thousands of the
same yellow flower,
but they will remember
the one that managed to
change its color to purple.
Suzy Kassem



The pink pigeon is a species of pigeon
in the family Columbidae
endemic to Mauritius.
The pink pigeon nearly became
extinct in the 1970s and the 1990s
and is still very rare. It is the
only Mascarene pigeon that has
not gone extinct. Wikipedia
*(Google lens guess. More likely a look-alike)




The more I wonder,
the more I love.

Oh, grown-ups cannot understand,
And grown-ups never will,
How short the way to fairyland
Across the purple hill.
Alfred Noyes



An animal's eyes
have the power to
speak a great language.

Pixie is like me. We are trying to figure out how that bird can be called a "pink" pigeon. Where's da pink? I sure don't see it...

Cloudia said...

Take it up with Google lens AI!
Lol. Have a beautiful weekend.

I do hope the pink pigeon survives and thrives. We have been responsible for way toooo many extinctions.
