The Rabbit Island cast of characters grew a bit today. For the first time in several days there were a total of 3 critters out there. I found Buster at 0641 on my first look, and when I got back at 0900 I found Duke up in the grass. On a pan at 1156 I just happened to see a hind flipper flex up behind the sand dune and Morning Glory, 40 ft left of 1BS. I'd had no clue that there was anyone there. Finally the animal moved down into view at 1303, and it proved to be Sam !

On my 0713 , Spitting Cave check, I found Kolohe doing 7 minute dives.

Team Billand reported Irma at White Plains at 0649, fronting #1708. Her D#9 molt appears to be 100%.

They called again at 1009 to say that Dera had called them about N28 being in Makaha. There is no N28. It took a bit of rechecking but it would prove to be N26, Benny, showin' off his new bleach. Unfortunately, he was run off by a dog at 1019.

The Billands checked in again at 1423 to report that one of their posse had called with the report of Rocky at Iroquois Point.

A 1346 Dera call advised that RI37 was once again at Shark's Cove today. She sent me Liz Weske photos from yesterday (10-26). I presume she looks much the same today, though I day older.
