October 31, 2026 Saturday's Dailies

Todays dailies are brought to you by Team R&B💕
They had another slow day today. There were big waves, one turtle and Miss Kala RH76. They found Kala after looking for a while, she was well hidden in the rocks. They waited for her to move. Then a "jerk"" came by looking for shells and he got too close to her and started making noises. Kala woke up and looked right at him. Team R&B made themselves visible, he looked over at them, they pointed to Kala he gave the thumbs up but continued to make noises.  After 30 minutes a big
wave came up and consumed the dude. HE came up and said the seal is usually always with another seal. Team R&B gave him the monk seal 101 talk, who knows if it will matter. Finally he left.
They found a turtle climbing up on shore at Makaha due to big surf. They also saw their first whale of the season today. 
Oh and I hope you all had some good tricks or treats today.

October 30, 2026 Friday's Dailies

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

Marilyn got a call shortly before 5 pm that there was a small Hawaiian Monk Seal hauled out on the east side.  She headed over and found the most recent Oahu weaner RV92, RJ30 Wailea's 20226 male pup. At first he was snoozing but about 25 minutes later he started moving towards the water. He found a small rectangular piece of paper or plastic with which he had fun playing. Then he headed out and Marilyn lost track of him. He looks healthy and appears to behaving normally. Marilyn saw both his V92 and V93 tags.

Team R&B saw Wakea RP28 from afar at Makaha. He was alone high up on shore.  When they looked later there was a man on shore by the bushes and by the time they got to the site RP28 was gone.
They did get to enjoy dolphins way out by the boats that were following them around.

Next they got a text of a seal on shore at plains. They headed over and
found R407 Kawika again, enjoying his rest by the cabins.
While there they watched a group of men trying to bring back the old Tower One after being repaired.
Way down to the Honolulu end of plains they found another seals. It was KG89 in her own zone. 
They also got a couple of great pictures of the waves.

Despite spending all day looking at all the usual spots they only saw one seal today. On the west side there was RP28 Wakea. He galumphed up to home, by the time Team R&B go to the area he had moved away from his den. He also seemed very alert, someone visited him. There were prints right up to his location.
Along with RP28 Team R&B got to enjoy the dolphins doing what they do best, having fun.

October 28, 2026 Wednesday's Dailies

Today's dailies are brought to you by Team R&B💕

They started their day with lots of driving around, some walking and looking. They finally found Miss Kala RH76 seen at her "bedroom" in the rocks. She started to whoop, but Team R&B didn't see anything. Then Miss Kala settled to the zen pond. It did rain while they were there, but they were prepared with ponchos.

They got word from a friend of a seal on shore at plains. Upon arrival there was R407 Kawika on shore. Its good he's been hanging out here, mostly because the lifeguards do such a great job looking out for them and setting up a safety zone. 

After leaving plains they headed west and at the very least it's very pretty. The walking path at Makaha still is difficult to get down, but it appears someone is trying to fix it. They did spot seal with lots of green, hiding in the rocks. They studied and they were grateful the seal did some flexes. They saw M31 tag. It appears RM31 Kai is molting, but they couldn't get a read on how much.

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.
