They got a late start today, but made it out to west side site and found Miss Kala RH76. She was alone snoozing at the zen pond area. The water was low today so there was more of her to see.

Still on the west side they noticed a seal on shore where the dog went after a seal a couple of days ago. Upon arrival the seal was gone and there were footprints close by, so they waited.  They spotted a shadow in the water, coming to shore. It was RP28 Wakea. He took his time hauling up, kept looking around and then went for it.
They saw a lady coming over and one of the homeless woman came too. The woman told the new lady about the seal and called it Pokahi, she said she raised this seal..... hmmmmmm.... Team R&B took the time and explained about Wakea, show them the video of the dog barking at Wakea. Told them about the 50 foot distance. Then Team R&B walked away, looked back and the lady was walking by RP28, near the shoreline. 
A big white dog appeared from the homeless camp to the left. It started backing a lot. IT got closer and closer, making Team R&B
nervous. They swung a stick and stamped their feet and the dog just stayed. So they ran towards it and the dog went away. Very nerve-racking.

Next stop they didn't see any seal at the site, but they did see dolphins. There was a couple on a board following along with the dolphins.

They found Mr. Kawika R407 at nimitz. There was a fishing poke
very close by him, but he was fine. The weekend will bring a lot more people and he may disappear, depending on the guests at the cabins.
While there they saw some birds trying to drink water from a shower head. They were pretty cute fighting for turns.

Their first find on the west side was the little green kid RV20. He seems fine and doing okay. No one was bothering him while they were there.
They checked back with him later in the day and he was still there.

Their second find was the lovely Miss Kala RH76. She was in the pond and hiding really good. While watching over Kala they saw a woman doing yoga on a board being filmed.

Next they spotted a seal on shore where the dog incident happened yesterday. They headed over and away from the house where the dog went was RP28 Wakea. They saw DLNR was talking to someone at the house. Good their looking into what happened.

While they were close to Makaha they saw a seal from afar so they drove over to ger a better look, but now there were two seals.
One was RL42 Leia and it took them longer to ID the other seal. The area has a lot of erosion which made it difficult to get closer. The other seal was a male that got washed off the rocks. As he approached RL42 they saw the scar on his head, it was R617.

They had a long day, but made one last stop at nimitz. There on shore
was R407 Kawika. It was a long walk out to the spot where he was resting. He was alone, resting in the sub. He's doing fine and his little plover buddy was also doing just fine.

On the west side once again they found Miss Kala RH76. She still hiding from the males, getting her rest. Nothing new to report on this lovely female seal from Rabbit Island.

At another west side location they found RN14 Kalani on the rocks. The boys certainly keep Team R&B on their toes. He started to vocalize so they weren't sure if there was another seal.  No... just three people on the rocks to the right. RN14 took off and went around and was going to land again but there were people there. Last seen he was heading towards the outfall.
From afar they saw a big seal trying to haul up on shore at tracks. They thought this could be RN14 but couldn't be sure. Immediately a group of people went to check out the seal.

Next they headed over to plains. Upon arrival they saw a seal on shore with a nice zone set up. The seal is very green and they were able to ID R416 Makalii. He looks like he'll molt soon.

They got word from posse pal Carol that a seal hauled out on the west side. Off they went and found Kawika R407. He was alone, chilling high up on shore. It was nice there were no people around, and he could rest peacefully.

They got a disturbing video from a friend of a black pit bull going after a monk seal on shore. They immediately went down not knowing when the incident
happened or who the seal was. In the video they could see the seal was newly molted, and not too big. 
Upon arrival the seal on shore was RP28 Wakea.  They went to the area where the dog approached the seal and saw the wallow high up on shore by the houses, then a seal trail going away from the homes. Seems RP28 traveled on shore for about 30 feet.  They checked him out there was no blood, no teeth marks and he seemed relaxed.  They believe the video was taken down. What sounded like a close call turned out to be okay.

Lastly they found a seal at cliffs. The seal was alone on the rocks resting. It was difficult to see, but it was an adult, newly molted no tags seen as the seal didn't move. They believe this could be RL42 Leia
