1-31-2012 DB's Dailies:

It was beginning to look like another one of "them" days, a D#2 skunking, but on my 1346 recheck of Rabbit Island I found that little Nani (RK60) was home again. She had last been seen on the Mokes on 1-14-12, and her last Rabbit Island visit was on 1-12-12. She appears happy and well.

Thank you to the "elves" who scoured the SE coast on the Kaiwi Quest, with no luck again today (D#7 without a sighting). Dera's map data says she is still somewhere out here in this quadrant, but she has certainly found a new hangout spot. Of course , the quest continues.

Team Billand checked in at 0733 with the report of T15M and Kermit (R012), once again fronting #1708, White Plains. At 1215 first Sean and the Barbara called to advise that Sean had gotten a left mid body N4 bleach on Kermit, with a half girdle. Thank You Sean ! Kermit had been dubbed N4, and initially bleach on 12-2-05. In 1-28-06 he was re-bleached, but he has been without bleach again until today.

Team Billand checked in again at 1350 to report that T15M has finally begun to rot. His D#1 bleach begins in the scratch arc of his good flipper, and is 1%.

At 1300 Ocean Safety called to advise of an animal on the ewa side of the Natatorium, which is actually behind the lawn of the Aquarium. I advised Dera & Dana, and Dana reported that Liz had gone to check the animal at 1315. No ID was gotten, but photos will hopefully answer the mystery.

At 1315 Dera reported an animal at Laniakea. Dana called at 1416 to advise that R5AY had been ID'd by tag.

 2AW almost done molting

 

 Just want to go up and peel those last few pieces off... (not that anyone would do that).... just saying.

 Look its Kermit, it's R4DG, its' N4

 T15M hanging out at White Plains 

 This has to be a record for him... if i'm not mistaken he's only spent this kind of time at Ka'ena Point.... Okay monk seal veterans.... give me the 411.
