Hi Doug,
01 for the foam and froth
and the last one for very specific reasons a newly grandfathered Birdling Man from ... will understand ;-)

Some of them don't get the angles you've treated us with. Yet, they're all good to very good for me.

Thanks for sharing
Amitiés
Philippe

It's not Mardi Gras in Hawaii.  They're a few species of sea birds in the 
Sulidae family, which includes Gannets.

Near the Sea Life marine theme park on the windward side of Oahu are a couple 
of islands where the Red-footed Boobies nest, along with other marine bird 
species.  The Boobies often fly past the the windward shore of Oahu at close 
range:

Brown Boobies are occasionally seen as well:

The Red-crested Cardinal is a common land bird in Hawaii. This species is 
native to South America:

and more common by far than the Cardinal is the Common Mynah, also not native 
to the Hawaiian islands:
