10/4/2017 Monk Seal Dailies: Kekoa Alii RK72, RL42, and Right Spot R016

Today's Dailies are brought to you by Team Billand and Posse Pal Gayle.  Speaking of Posse Pals, today I got to have lunch with a wonderful group of people who spent endless hours on the east side, particularly Sandys. They were there when Kaiwi was born and knew our beloved Seal Whisperer all too well.  Alice and Glenn are visiting from the mainland, so Marilyn, June, Gayle, Michele and I met them for lunch and talked story.  Just as a side note they weathered Irma both as a hurricane and as a monk seal.  

Team Billand covered a lot of beaches starting early morning and throughout the day they only found two seals. The first find was Kekoa Alii RK72 at Maili, he was way inland on the lower rocks in the morning alone. On a recheck at noon he was still there moved to waters edge to cool off.

Their next find at Makua Cliffs was RL42, they had passed earlier and there were no seals. Returned from their 40 minute walk check again and there she was.  While observing a couple of tourist pulled over, so Team Billand departed to not draw any attention.

Posse Pal Gayle found Right Spot at Sandys. Gayle made it to lunch and returned to Sandys, Right Spot was still there, Gayle departed at 18:45 leaving Right Spot in the light of the silvery moon.  As  a side note Alice and Glenn joined Gayle in the afternoon, and Alice went right back into outreach mode.
