not pupu kani oe snail

When I noticed several of these “fancy” snails slinking along the sidewalk where we dined one evening, I asked the waitress why the shells were so fancy. She told me she’d never really noticed them before I pointed them out. While they were not the very rare Pūpū kani oe, or tree snails endemic to only the Hawaiian Island of Oahu, they still were very interesting to watch. They were everywhere at dusk!
