If you stopped by our #kalokohonokohaunhp visitor center park store today, you might have met HPPA Executive Director Mel! She was graciously covering a shift so one of our frontline folks could attend a park gathering. We appreciate you, Mel! 👏🏼🌿

Remember to look down! 🦋🧡

HPPA's James at our Kaloko-Honokōhau NHP store noticed this Gulf fritillary butterfly making the most of rare shade in that hot, challenging lava field environment.

The #GulfFritillary is native to the southern U.S.
