M&M,R301,Buster,Hoku&RB08@RI, U/U@BH, 9-29-08
The Rabbit Island cast was M&M, Buster, Hoku , RB08 and R301. Watching R301 rot was about the most interesting part of the day. His D#9 molt is 85%. It took a while to get started but these last couple of days he has made great progress. R301,and Hoku did a swim play session, and were joined in the water by Buster. . They all hauled out together at one point, but after the 2nd swim session, Hoku gave them the slip. R301 and Buster hauled out together at the left end, while Hoku snuck in behind the water front rocks at the Middle Cliff area.


I stopped by Blow Hole on the way home, and found a small, 2 red tagged animal with a new coat, doing 9-10 minute dives. My Monachus gene says that it was Sadie, but, of course, by scientific associates demand an Unknown/Unknown designation.

Charles sent the latest map. Kolohe is still in the Kaneohe area, and , of course, Hoku is at RI. Aloha, DB
