09/15/2020 Tuesday Monk Seal Dailies

Today's dailies are brought to you by Team Billand and Lesley. Lesley's Ka'ena update is part two of the dailies.

Ka'ale RH32 was first seen foraging and stealing his breakfast this morning at the outfall. He was gorging for at least an hour before he took off.

About 15 minutes after he left the outfall he hauled out across at a nearby beach. He landed on the rocks.  Also on the rocks was Kawena RH32 she was dry therefore had been there for a bit.  She was very still even after Ka'ale arrived. He was a gentleman being right next to her and just going to sleep.

Team Billand moved onto another location where they found RL70 Leina up at high mid rocks. She was moving about and then suddenly hidden away.

RL20 Kalua was on lower rocks fast a sleep and completely dry. He is about 80% molted.

R3CX Nalu was in the shallows at first. He kept looking over to the water hole, but there was another seal there. Nalu greeted Kalua with a kiss.

Kekoa Alii RK72 was hidden in the water hole. Nalu made his way towards him, and Kekoa let him know he didn't want to share the water hole.  Nalu moved down to the shallow water and on the rocks.
