12/15/2015 DB's Dailies: RM38,Kolohe,Duke&Kainoa@Rabbit Island, Kaiwi@China Walls,Benny @ Keaau's on the West Side

At 0716 I found RM38 at the log, 40 ft left of 1BS on Rabbit Island. It would take a few hours, but he finally gave me a good look at his ventral side, once he moved down to the left. His D#1 molt is approximately 2%.

 He began moving down at 0920 having spied animals at the water line at the far left end. At 0922 Kolohe (RW22), Duke (RA12) & Kainoa (RN04) hauled out, and RM38 moved to the same general area. All 4 would remain there the rest of the day. There was just minimal interaction.


 At 1056 Gayle called with the welcome news of Kaiwi (RK96) snuggled into her favorite Naupaka at China Walls. Her N96 bleach is there, but difficult to see.

 At 1507 Team Billand’s daily hunt finally paid off . The called with the report of the Benny (RE74) at Keaau’s on the west side.
