July 29 2026 Wednesday's Dailies

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

Marilyn took a chance and headed over to the pier to view Rabbit Island. She viewed from 11:58 to 2:09 pm and there were nine seals seen during that time. 

Weaner Unknown 1: hauled out on the Lanikai side of LPB at 12:45 pm. Larger weaner to juvenile size, at least two tags, light belly, not sure of sex.

Just as Marilyn started viewing RH76 Kala and PO13 hauled out of

the LPB channel and moved up the beach. They then went into snooze mode. Marilyn did not see any nursing, pup appears to be growing normally.

At 1:45 pm an Adult Female showed up about 60 feet Lanikai side of  the Middle Cliff. The AF is small adult size, female belly about 40% molted, did not knowingly see tags. IT is possible this is MO3 doing her post weaning molt. (mystery mom).

On the 3BS side of Middle Cliff beach was Weaner Unknown 2: weaner size, probably three tags, light belly, but Marilyn couldn't determine sex. If WU2 has 3 tags then this is RV50 or RV68.

Down from the 3BS were two seals:

Weaner Female: weaner size, newer coat, light female belly and probably three tags.

Nearby was a Sun-adult Unknown: large juvenile to small sub-adult size, old coat with lots of green, at least one and probably two tags.

Between the 3BS and SRI channel was a Sub-adult to adult size male, old coat with lots of green, male belly and two tags.

Out on RRB was a Juvenile Female: small  juvenile size, old coat with lots of green, two tags.

Team R&B went out and it was a hot day. After searching for seals and coming up empty they just spent the time watching the beauty around them. They saw an Iwa bird flying low, it came towards them as if it looked right at them. Perhaps a sign.

They thought there was a rescue in process but it was HFD practicing at sea. 

Even the lifeguard asked them where are all the seals? One day there's three next day one then none. They'll be back.

There was not a lot happening in the seal search but they did find dolphins. They were far out and jumping. It was a little challenging to keep track. But needless to say they were awesome.

All of a sudden they heard a snort. It was a seal and turned out to be RG32. They were happy to see him in that hit had been a long time. He was alert looked around rolled over and then took off towards KoOlina.

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island for a short time from 12:34 to 1:14 pm. When she arrived there were only two seals on island but then a few others hauled out for a total of six seals.

RH76 Kala and PO13 hauled out of the LPB channel at 12:49 pm and moved up the beach before going into snooze mode. Marilyn did not see any nursing during her short viewing session. Both mom and pup seem healthy, the pup is putting on pounds.

At 1:01 pm Weaner Unknown 1 hauled out on the Middle Cliff side of the 3BS: weaner size, at least and probably three tags, no info on tags or sex.

When Marilyn first arrived there were only two seals on the SRI side of the 3BS:

Adult Female adult size, old coat with lots of green, female belly and two red tags.

Nearby was an Adult Unknown: adult size, older coat with light ventral, two tags.

At 12:59 pm, WU2 hauled out on the 3BS of the AF and AU: weaner size, at least two tags, no info on sex.

In yesterday's news Team R&B found RL20 Kalua on the side. He was alone resting against the rocks. When the waves came in he rolled into the shallows and left the area.

Today on their way to an appointment they got word of a seal at plains. They went to check and found KG54 Huakai on shore with her new coat.

Todays dailies are brought to you by Marilyn.

Marilyn viewed rabbit island from 12:55 to 2:25 pm and there were five seals seen during that time. 

In middle of LPB were RH76 Kala and her pup PO13. They have finally moved off the rock flats. PO13 is 3 weeks old today. Mom and pup both seem to be doing fine, the pup nursed and then went into snooze mode.

At Middle Cliff was a seal labeled as Weaner/Juvenile Unknown. Marilyn just could not decide on the size. The W/JU may have a wound on its forehead, or mark from over turning rocks. Marilyn could see at least tow tags, no info on sex.

Out near the 3BS were two seals:

Sub-adult Male: sub-adult size, light male belly and two red tags. This seal has an older coat with some green.

Nearby was an Adult Unknown: small adult size, older coat, not sure about sex or tags.
