October 17, 2026 Saturday's Dailies

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:50 to 2:30 pm and there were eight seal seen during that time.

Furthest Lanikai on LPB was RK24 Bruno: adult size, old coat dorsal, about 40% molted ventral, male belly and two red tags.

Initially next towards the 1BS was R7AF who then moved much further towards the 1BS to join Sub-adult Female 1. R7AF galumphed pas an Adult Male who was mid beach. The AM was adult size, old

coat, male belly and two red tags. Marilyn suspects the AM will start molting soon.

R7AF: adult size, mostly old coat, 10-15% molt on mid chest, N61 applied bleach, and two red tags.

Sub-adult Female 1: smaller sub-adult size, newer coat, female belly not sure about tags.

Directly down from the 1BS was a recent weaner female who might be RV76: larger weaner size, light female belly and two red tags.

Between the 3BS and SRI among the waterfront rocks was a Weaner Unknown: weaner size, probably female, and at least two tags.

A short distance closer to SRI was a Juvenile Female: larger juvenile size, very green, female belly and two red tags.

Out at RRB was Sub-adult Female 2: large sub-adult to adult size, female belly, not sure about tags, and a line scar behind the right eye.

Between the 1BS and 2BS were several sets of tracks up the slope, which Marilyn suspects are turtle tracks.

Out on the west side their first find was Miss Kala RH76. She was back in her zen area resting alone.

While out in the area they watched from afar the dolphins flying out of the water. It almost seemed like they were running for something, or maybe just having fun.

Then they spotted an adult seal passing by, but it didn't land while they were out there. It went in a westerly direction, they never saw it again. They think this might be Lei Ola RH48.

At another west side location they found RP28 Wakea resting on shore. There were four people trying to get him to move for a photo op. Team R&B kept asking them to move away and let the seal be, but they were having a good time and didn't listen.  Wakea galumphed to the rocks, Team R&B called it into the hotline and then left. 

Another stop on the west side they saw a green seal resting in the rocks. There was a lot of debris in the area. They tried taking photos from afar and got lucky to get a shot of its tags. The seal is RU40.

They did a recheck later in the day and he was still there alone and resting.

At Kahe they found the mystery green seal hauled out. They weren't able to make an ID. He's a big male, no tags seen, one scar on left side of his head. They thought maybe RN14, but just can't be sure. They been seeing him so much in the water and was hoping to get an ID today.

October 16, 2026 Friday's Dailies

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 11:49 am to 1:52 pm and there were four seals seen during that time.

On LPB there were three seals:

RK24 Bruno: adult size, male belly, about 30% molted, small scar on right rear side, two red tags.

RV50: weaner size, light yellow female belly and three red tags, Marilyn briefly saw her N81 applied bleach on her left side.

R7AF: adult male, mostly old coat, about 5% molted on upper chest, applied N61 bleach on left rear side, and two red tags.

Near the SRI channel was a Sub-adult Female: sub-adult size, new coat, female belly, not sure about tags.

Out on the west side Team R&B were on site for 45 minutes and didn't see anything. But then, by chance they spotted Miss Kala RH76 deep in the rocks. They waited for her to show more of herself.  The chanters came and were so loud it scared Team R&B, and Miss Kala moved out a little bit looking over at the chanters. After the chanters left Miss Kala went back to hiding in the rocks.

From afar they saw a little seal and studied it for an ID. They were thinking of U22 who they haven't seen since the Lowell Storm.  They determined this little one is RV20 and he was alone today.

Over at the outfall they spotted the seal with lots of green foraging alone today. They tried once again to make an ID but didn't have much to work with. They did note one of the photos show the seal has two cc scars on left side.

Team R&B headed over to plains and were told the seal was on shore since 6am. They got there late and the seal was still there. Mid-size seal, tags red R06 ..... that's Marvin the seal the lifeguards named. He's back and looking good. They were happy they got to see him again.

They also saw a bird that was entangled with fishing line on legs and beak.... poor thing.

They made a stop at nimitz and found R407 Kawika  He was further away than the spot where he's been for the last two weeks. 

Lastly driving along the west side coast on their way home, they

pulled over after noticing a seal. When they got out to look it was a newly molted RP28 Wakea looking so handsome. His belly scar is move visible.  

They walked the area and noticed movement, it was another seal. As they got closer the waves were hitting the big male, two red tags. It's R3CX Nalu.  He left and headed to Wakea, galumphed up and they met. Wakea was head butting Nalu, so he left. Wakea followed and they played in the shallows.
