December 31, 2025 Wednesday's Dailies

First I would like to wish everyone a Happy and Safe New Year. Let us hope 2026 brings us together in peaceful and kinder world.

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

On this New Years Eve Morning, they spotted two animals foraging together. It was RH48 Lei Ola with R3CX Nallu. The happy couple were getting their fill of food and hanging out together.

They were just ready to leave the area when they noticed some movement. Oh they were surprised to see it was a little seal. It had tags but not showing them to read, who could it be. They waited and finally RU04 showed her tags. They were thrilled.

They also spotted the dolphins further out doing what they so best, having fun.!

Over at Kahe there were two seals hauled out on the rocks.  Team

R&B ID'd RP30 Puka and RG32.

From afar they viewed electric beach and was shocked to see the beach so crowded with people. Team R&B kept checking the beach and spotted a small seal next to an adult seal, surrounded by people.

They recognized RS32 but the adult male was so sandy they couldn't make an ID.

They were concerned seeing all the people by the seals, but not much they could do.

Lastly they decided to make their way over to white plains. The beach was busy lots of people out and about. There were two seals in a zone that was set up for them with signs and ropes. The first seal they ID'd was KG89 Hiaka'i.  The other seal was way down by the cabins also in a zone that was set up for him. They ID'd R416 Makalii.

Todays dailies are brought to you by posse pals Justin and Christine and Team R&B💕

Justin & Christine sent an email letting me know they came across a young seal with tags U22/U23. They were on the west side of Oahu at a secluded rocky cover when the saw her.  They reported it to the hotline.

RU22 is a female born this year (July) on Molokai. 

Team R&B started their day finding Miss Kala RH76. She was alone resting peacefully at her zen area.

They headed over to Kahe and spotted one seal on the rocks. They ID'd Kai RM31. A few minutes later RG32 joined RM31 on his rock. 

They spotted a seal at the outfall pipes area. The seal was foraging in a crowd of people. They were able to ID RL08.

Meanwhile at Kahe RP30 Puka was on the rocks with RG32. Kai was still there.

From afar they spotted a male seal with one red tag at electric beach.  They believed it was RL08 but wasn't 100% sure. There was a dog nearby playing with a ball, but the seal was fine. 

Then the whole time they were standing on the beach, they had no idea there was another seal. There were fishers with their lines in the water and a dog on a leash.  Team R&B was able to ID RS32, the lovely little female. The fishers eventually left and little Miss RS32 remained and was just fine.

Team R&B started their day at Pokai and waited for over an hour with no sign of seals. They spotted a seal way out coming in. They were able to ID R3CX Nalu, who quickly disappeared. They never saw him again. Meanwhile there are still signs up warning of polluted water.

Over at Kahe they found two seals on the rocks. Kai RM31 was to the left and RG32 was to the right. RG32 was in the same spot as yesterday.  Along with the seals they saw some dolphins doing what

they do best, having fun.

Checking out the outfall they spotted multiple seals foraging. Team R&B spent quite awhile studying the seals to get their IDs. They were able to ID RH48 Lei Ola, RL08 and an Unknown Adult. 

While spending time studying the seals they got to see the whales put on a show. Although the whales were further out they got to see an amazing breach.

Team R&B spotted a seal hauled up on shore at tracks. All was good,

no dogs, but then people showed up. Team R&B couldn't make a positive ID on the seal they think it is a female, but not sure. Reported as an Unknown.

Lastly they took a ride out to yoks. They found one seal on shore, no signs up but lots of tracks from a quad. The seal is a male, no tags, ding on left shoulder and a natural bleach spots on right by flipper. They believe this is R427, who is difficult to ID. Last time they saw him he was very green and going through his molt. This male is newly

molted.

Sadly they were upset that the lifeguard passed on his quad close to the seal. At one point it was close enough that the seal postured with its mouth open. Maybe the lifeguard was responding to something.
