skinks! thanks for the correction, Carey. definitely skinks. from a quick google search looks like probably 'Lampropholis delicata' type. coloration, markings and location in Hawaii fit description. get choke enough. she doesn't catch many. quite sure the lawn mower is a bigger hazard in the world of skinks.
as for the birds my concern is the mosquito, yet another pestilence which could warrant it's own thread. until about a dozen years or so ago never had but a very few mosquitoes in this neck of the woods. literally would see just a few per year, during the summer months, barely able to drunkenly buzz around. for whatever reason, since then they have become progressively more numerous over an increasing span of the warmer half of the year.
still zero house roaches up here!
