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

Starting their day on the west side they spotted a seal foraging The seal had dark eyes and green coat. They weren't sure about tags but they feel confident this is Kai RM31. He is looking great and quite handsome.

While observing Kai they noticed a poor turtle with several tumors.  They also watching a boobie fishing.

Once again they saw the cute sub-adult foraging close to the jetty on

the rest camp side. The little buggah wouldn't show them enough to make an ID. It was sub-adult size and clean coat. It like to hang out by the jetty where people fish and surf.

Team R&B had spent a good amount of time checking around for R617 and RH76. On an additional check they watched as the waves got really big suddenly. Lifeguards posted a sign brown water warning. The waves were so strong they shot up the shore and there were rocks flying on the wall. They got word of two seals there

earlier. Then there they were R617 and  RH76 Kala. He was trying so hard to get closer to her and she wasn't happy about it.

Over at the outfall they spotted an adult seal foraging. They were not able to get a clean photo for an ID so it was reported as an Unknown Adult.

From afar they were scanning the nearby beaches and saw a seal haul out. It was big, they tried to determine who it was, but couldn't.  There were people going up to the seal, a couple of dogs loose, not a good

scenario.

They ended their day with yet another Unknown at kahe. The seal swim slowing by heading in the KoOlina direction. They couldn't get enough information for an ID.  Needless to say they were frustrated. The good news they had a busy seal day. And they saw a very cute dog.

Starting their day on the west side, they spotted RM31 Kai alone and snoozing. He was between thee rocks hidden, but there was a man who saw him too. He knew Team R&B were there watching the seal but he still walked down, RM31 got nervous and left.

RM31 went around and hauled up cautiously again in another good spot. He fought the waves, rolled around where Kala sometimes goes, then he moaned, rolled and settled. 

Next they spotted two seals by rest camp side. The seals were foraging but not together, and they were both pigging out. They ID'd one of the seals as RH48 Lei Ola with a clean coat. The other is an Unknown Adult with red tags.

At the outfall they saw two seals foraging and they stayed and watched them for a long time trying to get an ID. One seal is an adult

and very green. They thought maybe R3CX but could not confirm.

The other adult has a clean coat, that was about all they could determine. The greenish seal went to pipes and was met by some snorkelers. 

They did see dolphins that were way out. There were lots of people and boats out today.

September 18, 2026 Friday's Dailies

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:56 to 3:02 pm and there were eight seals seen on island today.

Out on Lanikai side of LPB were two seals:

Sub-adult Male: sub-adult to adult size, new coat, male belly and two red tags and

Juvenile Female 1: large juvenile to small sub-adult size, female belly and two ref tags.

On the berm of LPB nearer the 1BS were initially two weaners:

Weaner Unknown 1: small weaner size, at least two red tags, not sure about sex probably male, and 

Weaner Unknown 2: small weaner size, light belly unsure of sex and at least two red tags.

Later what Marilyn believes was RV76 joined the two weaners: RV76 was large weaner size, two red tags and light female belly.

On the LPB shore down from the 1BS was an adult to sub-adult seal, male belly, old coat, not sure about tags.

Down from the 3BS were two seals:

Juvenile Female 2: larger juvenile size, old coat with lots of green and two red tags, and

Adult Female: adult size, new coat, female belly, and two red tags.

Team R&B started their day on the west side. They spent time

studying the ocean and spotted two seals on the rest cam side. They were getting ready to head that way, but right in front of them was Kala RH76 so well hidden.  Then as they studied her photo they saw there was a seal next to her. It was RM31 Kai both blended in so well. 

All of sudden RM31 went nuts, stretching, looking around, barking and snorting. All the grunting and barking was due to another seal. It was R617 arriving, but he saw and heard RM31 racket and he just stayed where he was. But every time he moved, RM31 kept barking, so R617 left. He went around the rocks and popped up at the zen area alone.

To their surprise at rest camp on the rocks/sand was RP28 Wakea. He moved up on top of the jetty and went to sleep. They suspect he's going to molt any day.

There were two seals foraging at rest camp. They were able to ID Lei Ola RH48. Along with Lei Ola was a young sub-adult seal. Not sure of tags, but has a clean coat, young face.

Over at the outfall they spotted a green adult seal, but couldn't make an ID. They also saw a small green seal foraging further out off the outfall area.  And then there was a 3rd seal that had a clean coat and adult size. Needless to say they felt frustrated unable to get any IDs.
