Day 32 with Rocky and PO11, there was a lot of nursing, snoozing and a swim, more snoozing and nursing.
They were nursing when Team R&B arrived, then Momma Rocky suddenly threw up bright yellow bile about three times.
A jogger ran in the zone, but a lady yelled, so Team R&B yelled and together the jogger got the message. The seals were in the water.
There wasn't any rough ocean swims on their 6 hour watch, just water time in the ponds that fianlly had water with the rising tide. PO11 was seen playing with some fishing line for a bit and then thankfully let it go.
Rocky and pup headed to the rocks on the right, momma Rocky landed easily, but it took PO11 about 20 minutes to make her way up to mom. She was barking at the kid and the kid barked back a lot! Frustrated took a rest below mom and then gave it her whole strength to climb up to mom, Ta Da she did it! Everyone watching cheered for her determination and mom's patience.
Around 3 pm, the waves washed both seals off the rocks and they headed to driftwood side. Team R&B were tired and didn't get to see the big swim today. They left at 3:40 pm.
