March 31, 2026 Tuesday's Dailies

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:44 to 12:52 pm. She had a very short session due to a rogue wave that hit the ocean side of the pier, drenching her and all her gear. Thank goodness Marilyn is okay and the folks at the pier came to check on her. 
In the few minutes of viewing there was one seal on island. Between the 3BS and SRI was a Juvenile Female: larger juvenile size, older coat, tannish female belly and two red tags.

Team R&B s started their day finding two seals on the west side. The first seal was in the seal inlet, an
adult male. They tried to get and ID but just couldn't come up with who this might be. At one point they thought maybe R3CU, but reported him as an Unknown Male.
The other seal was also a male and was to the right. He did not move at all, they couldn't see if he had tags. He did have lots of scaring and scratches on the right side of his face and another deeper scar. They thought maybe R617, but again can not be sure. He was also reported as an Unknown Male.

Next stop at kahe they found RG32. He was alone on the rocks and very alert. There were some folks that arrived and were loud. 

They decided to check out plains and when they arrived to find the two royal fat females. 
There was Miss Huakai KG89 and the other beauty RL12 Aukai.

Starting their day searching the west side. Their first find was RL20 Kalua. He had just hauled in at seal inlet near the zen area. They noted he has a lot of scars around his mouth, probably from all the hooks over the years.

Next they found Kai RM31 at Kahe. He was alone resting on the rocks.
They spotted seals fighting and foraging off the outfall. They ID'd one seal as RL08. He spent some of his time attacking a dive float.  The other seal with him was RN14 Kalani. They saw the scar on the right side of his head.
Then much to their surprise RL08 heading towards the rocks. They headed over as he landed and hauled up to RM31 who was sleeping. RM31 woke up barked at RL08 and then they settled.

From afar they noticed a seal hauling out at tracks. As they were going to head over to try and make an ID, the adult seal turned and went back into the water. There were people to the right filming and a man with a big dog on a leash. Team R&B aren't sure what caused the seal to leave, all they could determine it was an adult. 

Team R&B got a text of a seal at plains. So off they went and when they arrived they saw one seal. It was R407 Kawika resting with the waves washing over him.

Team R&B got word from posse Hiroko of a small seal at KoOlina. After looking at the photos they
realized it was N45 aka Temp 402. Team R&B usually don't go to KoOlina because its so crowded and people don't listen. But today their N45 Na'au was there so they went. 
When they arrive he was with another seal an adult male. They not sure but think maybe its Kaale.
Of course people got too close, and N45 left on his own. He heading in the direction of plains. The adult male remained.

Marilyn viewed Rabbit island from 12:37 to 1:57 pm and there was only one seal seen during that time.
She noted that the water between the shore and Rabbit Island is still very dirty.
Down from the 3BS was a Sub-adult Female: sub-adult size, yellow ventral, female belly and two red tags.

Team R&B started their day on the west side. Their first find was the
lovely Miss Kala RH76. She was alone resting on lower rocks. She is looking quite big.

At the outfall they spotted an adult seal foraging. They tried but couldn't make an ID, so it was reported as an Unknown Adult.  While checking out the seal they saw some dolphins.

From afar they saw a green seal on shore at tracks. They couldn't tell who the seal was but it was surrounded by visitors, some getting too close.  They got a call about another seal so they left the area, but did
go back to check. The seal was still on shore and people were still getting too close and the seal took off. Team R&B saw a good Samaritan who was there when the seal took off scold the lady that caused it.  

Next they headed over to plains. Today there was only one seal and it was Miss Aukai RL12. She was in a zone set up by the lifeguards. There were kids in the area and one of their boogie boards got washed up by her.

Lastly they went down to check on the whale carcass. They got called over to a tent and was surprised to see Dr. Kristi West who remembered them. Its been a while since they have seen her so it was a nice surprise.  They don't know the cause of death of the whale and it's too decomposed to get any information. They didn't see any sharks, until later when a lone tiger shark arrived.
