At 0759 I found Nani (RK60) and Duke (RA12) partially hidden amongst the water front rocks, 40 ft left of Seal Rock Inlet. They would enter the water together at 0804 and do a swim/play/forage session until they hauled out together at 0928, to mid Middle Cliff. After a snooze they reentered the water, with Nani in the lead, at 1224. Their water session lasted until 1307 when they hauled out together to the far left end of the beach, where they snoozed away the rest of the afternoon.

Rachel Frank checked in from Diamond Head to advise that Rocky was still at the showers. Rachel's photos may show the tiniest beginnings of molt in her sternal crease and on her forehead. Tomorrow will tell us more.

Team Billand called at 0950 with the report of T21M at IRQ. They had been watching him off shore for about an hour, prior to his haul out.

Missus Whisperer (Marilyn) did the Ka'ena Point trek today. She found a 25% molted RO28, at the beach 15 minutes in from the Mokuleia parking lot, and then found T15M, 761, Ka'ena (RO40) and Kerby (RW08) at the point, of the end of the world.

Donna Festa called at 1215 with word that "we have a weaner". Kekoa was on his own today. Ewa Girl and been there on Thursday, and Barbara advised that she had spoken with security guard, Aileen at 1500 yesterday and EG was still there.

In the "Yesterday's News" Department, as I mentioned yesterday Lesley went both to Turtle Bay, and then to Ka'ena Point, via the westside. She is vying with the Billands for the most miles driven in a single day award. Lesley found 4 critters yesterday, and managed to document T15M and a definitely hook free 761. The two unknowns, will remain unknowns.

 Nani and Duke  

 Rocky at home in Diamond Head getting ready for her molt... it would be a lot easier if she just hauled up in Colleen's yard.

 His little umbilical attachment should be dropping off soon

R5AY and pup Day 3
