Out on the west side their first find was their girl, RH76 Kala. She was resting in the rocks and later moved to her zen pond to blow bubbles. She's getting plump.  They noticed she kept looking around as if there was another seal, but Team R&B didn't see anything.

Next at Makaha they spotted a seal galumphing up on shore. They watched until it was all the way up. Later they went over to the area and found RP28 Wakea sound a sleep, in the yard. He was stretching and snoring looking pretty dam cute.

They went looking for the sub-adult, RV20 and R3CX, but none of them were seen today. But they did notice a seal, an adult, nice coat, tags, but no luck with an ID. Then the seal took off so it was reported as an Unknown Adult.

At another west side spot they were getting ready to leave and they spotted another seal that landed at the zen area. Male with no tags, it was R617. That's what Kala either saw, heard or smelled coming.

They didn't stay to see if he'd go bug Kala. But the weather was changing it was time to go.

As a side note the dolphins showed up briefly much to the joy of the boat that was out there.

Lastly they got word from a friend of a seal hauled out at plains. They went to check it out and it was R407 Kawika.

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 11:49 am to 2:23 pm and there were four seals seen during that time.

Out on the Lanikai side of LPB was an adult male that Marilyn believes to be R7AF: adult size, new coat, male belly, not sure about tags.

Initially at the SRI entrance were two seals:

Weaner Unknown: weaner size, tan ventral, not sure about sex or tags, may have an applied bleach on the left side.

Adult Male: adult size, new coat, male belly and two red tags. The weaner and adult male started out at SRI, moved out a short distance along the SRI, then disappeared at 1:01 pm. Later they showed up on shore between the 3BS and SRI. The AM then relocated to the SRI channel leaving the weaner alone.

Out on the RRB was a Juvenile Female: larger juvenile size,  green coat, female belly and two red tags.

Team R&B started out on the west side staring at the ocean from all sides, looking for seals. Sure enough they spotted the unknown sub-adult with clean coat, green snout, tags but still can't read them. Then suddenly there was another seal. Its R3CX Nalu and the two of them were playing rough, diving and coming up out to their chest. It was fun to watch only wishing they had an ID on the sub-adult.

As they walked around they saw a little seal on shore. It was RV20. They called it in and stuck around

for three hours, no one came out. They did a little educating with a father and two boys who got a little close. They were nice and moved back and listened to stories about the seals.  

Later two local folks walked right up to the seal took photos and then walked away.  Very disappointing and it gets tiring people don't care.

Seems Mr. Nalu R3CX needed some rest after foraging and fighting with the younger seal. They found him on shore alone at Makaha.  They did see wallows up at the house where a small seal slept. Many trails to the water, they wondered if RP28 was there earlier.

They continued to search for more seals, but none were seen. They meet a really nice man and talked story about the  area and its critters. Suddenly the guy said Look Seal !  - Team R&B saw an adult seal with a clean coat, not sure of tags, didn't see any scars. The seal Unknown Adult kept going in the KoOlina direction.

They called a friend to let them know. When they got back on the road traffic was bad so they called it a day.

They arrived at pokai beach and found Miss Kala RH76 alone and snoring. She was enjoying her siesta out there without any males pestering her.

Over by rest camp  Team R&B saw the kayaks and paddle boarders gathering and smiling and taking photos. They knew why...... Nalu R3CX was foraging out there, then zipping about between everyone. They never saw him haul out today.

Still on the west side they spotted a sub-adult seal with two red tags. They tried their best noting a scar or mark under its eye but could not make an ID. Seal has a clean coat and green on the snout. He was busy also going all over the place sometimes in front by the jetty and rest camp. Looks like the tag may have a "3" .

They spotted a seal on shore from afar, then two people were picking shells near by and the seal left. Team R&B waited and about 25 minutes later the seal returned and hauled out. There was no one around. Team R&B made their way over and on shore was RP28 Wakea, all alone and happy. 

They headed over to plains and saw a seal on shore. They had a hard time IDing this seal, they saw the cc on back, clean coat, and no tags. Then they realized it was R407 Kawika.  They saw his left eye scar, the natural bleach ball on left rump area. He finally moved out of Nimitz, guess too many people out by the cabins. He had a good zone set up for him.
