June 29. 2025 Sunday's Dailies

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 1:35 to 3:15 pm and there were six seals seen during that time.
When Marilyn first arrived she found RL12 Aukai and PO12 was behind her, near the LPB surge channel. Later Marilyn did view a nursing session.
At 1:51 pm, RH76 Kala and PO11 hauled out of the LPB surge channel. Both look good and Marilyn did see the pup nurse. Later PO11 moved behind mom.
About 50 feet on the Lanikai side of the 2BS was weaner RU24. He showed his male belly with his mouth open. Marilyn never knowingly saw weaner RU38 today.
At 1:49 pm, Marilyn saw that RK37 Hali'a had hauled out on the rock flats next to the SRI channel. At 3:11 pm saw that she had hauled out on the beach. RL37 is adult size, has a new coat and showed her lower left nb.
Around 2 pm Marilyn saw outrigger canoes with sails crossing from Makapuu Point towards Waimanalo between the shore and Rabbit
Island. Also she saw the Outrigger Canoe Club, Maui Jim's, Outrigger Kaanapali, Hui Nalu, Kona Brewing and several others.

This morning Team R&B spotted the dolphins way out doing their thing. They did notice some of them had trackers. 

Then they spotted from afar two seals in the water by tracks. They couldn't tell who they were one was adult size and lots of green. 
One of the hauled out so they hurried over to get an ID. They were happy to see it was RP28 Wakea resting on shore. There were folks out and about but he was resting peacefully.
On their way back to the car they spotted another seal resting on the sand.
It took them a bit to get to it, not to mention the area isn't the safest place on the west side. Finally they were able to see the seal was an Adult Female and she is molting. They couldn't see tags, and their viewed was obscured by the trees and grass. She was reported as and Unknown Female.
