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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:07 to 2:21 pm and there were five seals seen during that time.

Initially on the Lanikai side of LPB was a Juvenile Female: larger juvenile size, green coat, female belly and two red tags. She later moved further back and then returned to her original location.

On the berm of LPB was RK24 Bruno: adult size, old coat, N32 applied bleach on right side and male belly.

At some point Weaner Unknown 1: appeared behind RK24: weaner size, light yellow ventral, no ingo on tags or sex.

On the 1BS side of LPB nearer the water was a Sub-adult Female: sub-adult size, new coat, female belly and no info on tags.

Just hauling out of the SRI channel when Marilyn arrived was Weaner Unknown 2: large weaner size, light belly, no info on tags. This is probably RV76 based on its size, but Marilyn couldn't confirm a female belly.

Team R&B first find on the west side was RH76 Miss Kala. She was alone today resting in her zen pond. 

Then they saw something in the distance, looked weird but as it got closer it was a molting seal. They ID'd R3CX Nalu foraging and they could see his molting fur washing off into the water. Then he was gone.

They decided to go check where he's been hanging out of the past week. Ta Da! there he was like he had been there all along. But Team R&B knew better.

Its been a while but they did get to see some dolphins at play.

By the outfall they noticed a green seal foraging. They ID'd RM31 Kai out there again. Suddenly there was a second seal with a clean coat, one tag. An adult, who they believe is Aukai RL12.

Lastly they went to nimitz and found R407 Kawika alone. He was

resting down low to the water pushing his snout in the sand, then he got hit by a big wave. Surprised him and he went up higher after that. Today he seemed bothered, like he was alert to something, kept looking around.

On the west side they saw Miss Kala RH76 moving about on shore. Her molt is going fast. She went way up in the rocks, lets hope nobody bothers her.

They made it over to Makaha where they found Mr. Nalu R3CX. He was alone and is also molting. They estimate about 45% molted.

From afar they saw another seal. A woman let them enter the area

through her gate for a better look. The area they usually walk down is gone and is now about a 5 foot drop.  The seal had a tag, although they couldn't get a good read they are thinking this is RL42 Leia, who is 100% molted.   Hopefully they'll get confirmation on her ID.

Over by the outfall area they saw a green seal foraging with it's red tags. They believe this is RM31 Kai. The fishers had lines out, lots of them which concerned Team R&B with the seal foraging nearby. The

fishers caught two rainbow runners within 5 minutes.

Lastly they checked out Nimitz since there had been so many fishing poles out yesterday. When they got there today the fishers were gone.  R407 Kawika was high up on shore, molting about 20%. Seems the seals are having a molting frenzy.   There were some cute shore birds near by.

October 3, 2026 Saturday's Dailies

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:54 to 3:13 pm and there were four seals seen during that time.

Alone on the berm of LPB was weaner RV76: large weaner size, two red tags and female belly.

On the 1BS side of LPB nearer the water were two seals:

Sub-adult Female: sub-adult to small adult size, new coat, female belly, no tags that could be seen. Nearby was RV50: older weaner size, yellow female belly, applied N81 bleach and three tags.

About 50 feet Makapuu side of the 3BS was a Juvenile Unknown: larger juvenile size, new coat, no info on sex or tags.

Out on the west side Team R&B were happy to find Miss Kala RH76. She came in cautiously and then went to her nesting area and settled. She was alone without her beau.

From afar they saw there was a big seal on shore at Makaha. So they headed over to find R3CX Nalu, and he is molting away. They did a recheck later in the afternoon and he was still there resting.

At electric beach they saw a seal coming out of the outfall headed to the shore, landed and kept looking around. Then the seal turned around and left. A group of people hurried over to get a picture of the seal. Team  R&B believe this was RP28 Wakea, but he disappeared before they could be sure.

Off the outfall was an adult with clean coat, at least one tag and the seal never landed. Perhaps that's what RP28 was looking for when he landed.  They also noted this seal has a scar on the right of its head. Maybe Aukai?

Next they headed over to Nimitz to check, especially since there were so many poles set up yesterday and today. There was R407 Kawika had just arrived and placed himself

under one of the poles per the fisherman. One of the other guys told them there was a second seal so Team R&B went looking.

Sure enough there was another seal. It was Huakai KG89 on shore far from R407. Guess plains was too crowded for her. No one was bothering her at all which is a nice change of pace.

They decided to make a late check on Kala because they realized after they left she was starting her molt. When they arrived near her was the green RM31 Kai. They were happy to see the two of them together. Both moved way inland for the night together again.
