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

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.

September 17, 2026 Thursday's Dailies

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

Starting their day on the west side, they were happy to once again find Kala RH76 and R617 together. So they have been referring to the male with RH76 as RG32, but according to NOAA it's actually R617 with the ding on his back.   Either way these two have a thing going on.

Team R&B went over to the rest camp side and spotted an adult seal. It was RH48 Lei Ola  foraging. She has a clean coat and her one red
tag. She stayed all day long. Team R&B made a late check and she was still pigging out.

Over by the outfall they could see two seals foraging. One seemed greener coat, and the other with a clean coat, either way they were reported as Unknowns.

While watching over the outfall they did spot a big seal on the rocks. Checking him out it was RL20 Kalua resting without a car in the world.

They heard there were no seals at paradise cove, then shortly after they got word from posse pal Carol. There was a seal, so Team R&B hurried over. Parking is a problem, when they finally got a space they quickly made their way to the beach. There was the lovely Miss Aukai

RL12. She was sound a sleep on the rocks and there were signs up.

Then they made one last check on the west side. They were shocked to find RM31 Kai with Kala RH76. R617 was no where to be seen, hmmm wonder if there was a confrontation.
