Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:29 to 2:36 pm and there were five seals seen during that time.

MO3 and PO3 were in the water when she first arrived. She saw them a few time in the LPB surge channel. They hauled out about 1:05 pm and PO3 then nursed before going into snooze mode. PO3 is getting noticeably bigger.

RF34 Pu was on the waterfront rocks between 3BS and SRI. The pup was hidden behind her for Marilyn's entire visit. She managed to get one photo of PO4's flipper flex behind Pua.

At 12:55 pm, Marilyn became aware of a seal in front of RF34. At first she though it was PO4, but it was not. The seal hauled out and moved in the Lanikai direction. It turned out to be a Juvenile Female: juvenile size, light female belly and two tags.  Marilyn was surprised that Pua did not act aggressively toward the JF.

Email from Tammy on her last full day on Molokai. She and posse pal Liz went searching for seals and they only found one male RKB2. He is one of Right Spot's off spring.

Team R&B arrived at pokai and realized that sometimes the seal blend in so well with the rocks that they don't see them. Thankfully there was a flipper flex that made them aware. They spotted RH76 Kala and then RH32 Kaale. They could clearly see his line and hook today.

They felt as though RH76 Kala wanted to move from Kaale, and eventually she did. She moved to her zen area and Kaale slowly galumphed over to her.

There were a couple of surfers coming, so Team R&B let them know about the seals. They were super respectful, which always feels good.

Heading over to Kahe, they saw a seal from afar. They got closer to ID RM31 Kai alone on the rocks.

He kept looking around, and Team R&B looked to see if there was anyone or anything around.  They only saw a bicycle but no one was there.

They went looking around and saw a fisherman. Then they noticed a second seal had arrived with RM31 Kai. They hurried over and there was little brother RP30 Puka.

Tammy is on Molokai enjoying a couple if days with visiting family. She was nice enough to send a couple of photos of seals they spotted today. First there was R421 a big adult male. Then there was RKB2 and lastly was RS04 a young female looking quite green.

Team R&B started their day at the bay and immediately spotted a thin green seal. They were thrilled to find Miss Kala RH76. This is her first sighting since she weaned PO8 on Rabbit Island. She looking thin but seems just fine. She did not move from the spot where she was resting and slept the day away. 

Nice to have her home on the west side, hopefully she won't be disturbed.

The only other find today was at the cliffs. They spotted a seal from afar, where they had just passed by.

They checked it out and there was a green male, two red tags. They determined it was RP30 Puka who looks like he is almost ready to molt.

Team R&B did see some action out on the water. Three were lots of jet skis flying by and a couple of boats. They weren't sure what was going on, but once they got to the area concluded it most likely is a movie being filmed.

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 10:48 to 12:31 and there three seals seen during that time.

A NOAA team of four kayaked to this island today, neither weather nor seals cooperated.

Again in the Middle Cliff area were RF34 Pua and her pup PO3. They finally went for a genuine swim session in the small pool off the middle cliff beach. Pua was wary of the NOAA team.

Between 3BS and SRI was R7AF: sub-adult size, light tan male belly and two red tags.

Team T&D are still on Molokai and saw two seals and a turtle today.

First seal was a make RKB2 snoozing in his back. Once again they came across the little cutie RS04 laying on her right side.

They hiked out with posse pal Liz and found what Tammy describes as the fattest turtle she's ever seen.

Team R&B started their day at the bay and were shocked and thrilled to find Miss Kala RH76. She was galumphing very slowing on the rocks. While watching her navigate the rocks they noticed another seal just below which was RL70 Leina. She galumphed over to RH76 checking on her.

At another west side location they ultimately found three seals.

The first one was a male that took them quite some time to get an ID. They determined it was R617.

Then there was Kai RM31 on high rocks. He got knocked around by the waves and galumphed to mid rocks.

The third seal seen coming from the west, turned in. He landed at seal inlet, and they ID'd RG28 Lefty. He galumphed inland toward RM31. They met and both settled in and went to sleep.

Checking the Kahe area they only found one seal. There was RL20 Kalua alone resting without his buddies.

From afar they noticed an adult seal hauled out at tracks with signs up. They're not sure why but the seal left. Team R&B watched one of the homeless guys with his dog pick up the signs and take them back to the camp. This is the same guy they have seen put signs out for the seal.
