Todays dailies are brought to you today by Team T&D.

Team T&D hiked out to the point with Lesley today. Their first find was Holokai RG40.

Next there was RL98 Lina.

Out at the point they found Kami RL74.  She's looking grown up and will be turning 3 this year.  Wasn't it yesterday she was a weaner.

Next find was Kiane R604. She is also a sub-adult with a bright white belly. Also for being such a young seal she has a lot of scars.

Last but not least was PvKauai RW02. They spotted him in the outer pool. He swam out did a couple of dives then came back into the main pool.

🐬 Todays dailies are brought to you by Team R&B💕

Once again Team R&B had a very short day. They made one stop at a west side location and found one seal.  There was RG28 Lefty who was alone on the rocks.  They were happy and relieved he moved from tracks since there have been so many dogs off leash in the area.

Good move Lefty.

It was a very short day with only two seals. 

First find was their little cutie Pe'ekai RP84.  He was on the rocks at a west side site.

Next they saw Lefty RG28 along the shoreline at tracks. He was ID'd by his applied bleach and cc scar on his back. Lefty never landed on shore, and eventually they lost sight of him.

Todays dailies are brought to you by Marilyn and Team R&B💕

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 11:25 to 1:45 and there were two seals on island today.

About 70 feet Lanikai side of the 1BS was a subadult female who Marilyn believes is RK37 Hui'a: subadult side, mottled yellow female belly, two red tags and she thinks there was her signature nb on the lower left side. Marilyn doesn't think she is the same subadult female she has seen over the last three days.

Between 3BS and SRI was RF34 Pua: large adult size, gray female belly, at least one (and probably two) red tags, and a scar on her right rear side.

As a side note: RK37 is RB12 Sadies pup from 2018 and RF34 is Sadie's pup from 2014. Pua will turn 8 on April 3rd.

Team R&B spotted Kaale resting on shore alone at tracks. They called the hotline and put up some sticks to deter folks.  

They saw two women arrive with a dog and its ball.  Team R&B immediately ran up to them to please keep the dog away from the seal since it wasn't leashed. They said okay we're right here, and continued to toss the ball for the unleashed dog.

Then Team R&B heard Kaale barking and the dog running right up to him, and continued to keep after Kaale until he left the sight.  

The women called their dog over and continued to play with their dog as if nothing had happened. UGH!!!!

Team R&B watched and saw Kaale heading for the outfall.  When they arrived there was an added bonus a little seal was with him L7. 

Both headed back onto Tracks, landed and fought/played and entered the water again. Kaale was after the little guy who fought back as best he could. Big butthead Kaale playing a little too rough with the kid.

Once they landed, Team R&B called the hotline again and sent in photos of the dog incident. Asked to please send someone since Team R&B had to leave at noon.

At another west side location they found Miss Kala RH76 alone.

The last seal they saw today was Kekoa Alii RK72 at another site.

Todays dailies are brought to you by Marilyn and Team R&B💕

Marilyn a few hot spots on the windward side and did not see any seals. She viewed Rabbit Island from 11:50 to 2:00 and there were four seals on island today.

About 50 feet Makapuu side of 1BS was a S/F once again: subadult size, yellowish female belly and two red tags. 

On the 3BS side of Middle Cliff on top of the waterfront rocks was a large adult female, that Marilyn believes to be RF34 Pua. She has at least one red tag, scar on the rear right side and Pua is due for an appearance on island. 

A short distance Makapuu of RF34 was a seal that is reported as an Adult Male. A/M: subadult to adult size, lighter gray male belly and two red tags.

When Pua went over the front rocks and started moving in the direction of the 3BS, the A/M followed her.  They had a few words and ultimately RF34 hauled out again almost directly down from the 3BS. The A/M hauled out as well.

About 40 feet Makapuu side of the 3BS mostly hidden behind the waterfront rocks was an Unknown/Unidentified. U/U: yellowish ventral but barely visible to determine size, gender or tags.

Team R&B started their day watching a very busy Kaale RH32. He was in and out of the outfall getting his fill. And today he lived up to his reputation and stole some fish from the fisher's lines, which he has been doing for years.

While in the area they checked another beach and sure enough there were two seals. Turned out to be R413 Makamae and RG28 Lefty. There were lots of people both in the water and on the beach. Thankfully signs were up and a volunteer on site.

Team R&B went and did a check of a popular tourist beach and found a big fat seal snoozing on the

rocks. It was Kekoa Alii RK72 who got hit by waves. He decided to relocate to onto the shore. They put up a zone and waited.

It was really hot and humid so they left the area and Kekoa remained on shore.

At another west side location they found their sweet darling Pe'ekai RP84. He was on high rock in snooze mode and snoring. 

To the right of him was Miss Kala RH76 looking beautiful. She was resting peacefully.

They headed to another area and from afar they spotted a seal snoozing on shore by the towers. It was an easy ID for them dear old Benny RE74.

They watched from afar and how folks were walking right up to Benny. Benny would lift his head look up. Team R&B did not go to the site there were just too many people to deal with.

Just as they arrived at the cliffs they saw a huge seal dive down the rocks and swiftly swim away. They moved to another spot and the seal went pass and kept going until she disappeared.  Studying their photos they determined it was RL42.
