3-6-2012 DB Dailies:

It was a miserable day out there, as I'm sure all will agree. Gayle did a couple of Spitting Cave checks (nobody), and I did a pass through the rest of the SE quadrant, but found nothing until my 2nd look at Rabbit Island at 1228. There I found Kolohe (RW22), at Seal Rock Inlet, and an U/U 40 ft left of 1BS. At 1252 I became aware of a partially visible animal behind the dunes, left of 1BS. At 1426 Nani moved down, allowing the ID. She interacted a bit with the U/U, but since that animal was in a crabby mood, Nani entered the water.

Unfortunately that was the extent of my day. A landslide in the area between Sandy Beach and Hanauma Bay, closed the area, so no further checks were possible.

Team Billand called at 1103 with the report of Pohaku (RO28) at Electric Beach.

At 1136 the Billands found Benny (RE74) at Makaha.

At 1312 they reported Noa (R6FI) and R018, together at Maili.

Dana called at 1751 advising of a Hotline call reporting a possible Mom & Pup in the Jameson's area in Haleiwa. Volunteers Liz and Joanne are out checking the area at this writing. RI37 is a possibility, but I have no further info at this time. Check the blog in the morning for any updates. I was hoping for some type of official update before posting.... having said that, Liz being one of the volunteers that went out did speak to witnesses and for all purposes there is a mom and pup that entered the water. (not sure what it was, but apparently something spooked them).   SO GOOD PEOPLE ON THE NORTHSHORE:  KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN and SEE IF YOU CAN FIND THIS MOM AND PUP.
