Back off from my favorite flower! Of course I prefer the nectar of the gods.

ʻākohekohe (Palmeria dolei) AKA Hawaiian honeycreeper

Island of Maui, Hawai'i

Status: Critically Endangered

Threats: disease, invasive species

---

ʻōhiʻa lehua (Metrosideros polymorpha)

Hawai'ian islands

Status: Vulnerable

Threats: invasive species, fungal disease

The tree and the flower are two lovers. First ʻŌhiʻa was transformed out of jealousy by the volcano goddess Pele. Then Lehua was transformed into a flower so that they would be together eternally.

If you pick a flower and separate them, the lover's tears will make it rain.

If you've ever wondered why people in Hawai'i hate tourists, try to wrap your mind around the fact that there are CURRENTLY, RIGHT NOW, tourists sipping martinis and looking at fish within swimming range of the fresh corpses of local people who couldn't escape the overnight destruction of their entire town.

Try to comprehend that there are fully functional, high capacity boats passing through the waters in front of an area full of survivors who are stranded and in need of supplies, refusing to help. They are hosting snorkeling tours.

Really think about, try your best to actually picture over two thousand people unhoused and in need of shelter, with nothing but the clothes on their backs and nothing to return to. Understand that the island, stolen land, is littered with hotels full of air conditioned of rooms with beds and showers and toilets, each fully equipped to host hundreds of families for weeks, turning these people away because they're booked up with tourists who refuse to leave.

And understand that these tourists were offered free transport to return home or be hosted on other islands. Free. Courtesy of local tax dollars. 4,000 wealthy tourists were offered free flights shelter on Oahu and begged to leave the island, BEFORE the survivors were given shelter.

And enough still insisted on remaining and carrying out their vacations that people are left without shelter and resources while they enjoy "their stay in paradise".

[Edit]: This current situation, and this type of tourist behavior is horrifying beyond words. In other circumstances, the tourism situation is much more complicated, and I need to ask that people do not add on to this post unless they are local.
