8-18-11 DB Dailies

I got email from Dana last night, advising that an animal was once again fronting lifeguard stand 2C, in Waikiki. When I arrived at 0530 this morning I found who else...Rocky (RH58) snoozin' away. She would began her galumph to the sea at 0900, but of course, had to pose and roll in the cool sand, before departing at 0940. Thanks to Becky and Karen !

Late Breaking...... Just got a call from Dera at 1928. Rocky is back at 2C in Waikiki. It looks like there will be a D#6 in my life in the morning, unless any among you have the equipment and the desire to deal with Rocky and the early morning characters .

I got to Makai Pier at 1114 and found Nani (RK60), Duke (RA12), and Kolohe (RW22) together in a group, on the right side rocks of Seal Rock Inlet on Rabbit Island. Duke's D#8 molt is 100%. Kolohe's D#5 molt is 20%.

Reports from the AD's , Irma &Pup sight said they spent the morning on the water front rock flats.

Karen Turner sent D#21 photos from Turtle Bay with R5AY, and a reeeeally chunky lookin' pup. Thank You Karen.

Team Billand checked in at 1103 with the report of RI37, on the sand at Tracks.

Dana made her report from the Reef Runway at 1210, saying that she and Dera had found that Ewa Girl (RS00) was there, but Kekoa was not seen in the 2 hr window she had out there. Dera called at 1449 to advise that ace Security posse member Eileen had just called to report that Kekoa had just hauled out, but Ewa Girl was gone. Thank You Eileen.

Tracy sent some shots from her 3 day pup tagging trip to Kalaupapa. Though all 3 pups are cute, I must confess a warm fuzzy spot in my heart for Lona's boy, RK70. Buster and Right Spot's presence there was an extra added treat.

I beginning to think Rocky is a tad too comfortable at her new haul out...
