It was D#2 of the NOAA vaccination drill. The same crew, Chad,David, Cianna&Sam, once again motored off to Rabbit Island. Today was a very interesting find. I had seen two large animals in the Morning Glory, 40 ft left of 1BS, on RI, prior to the guys leaving. They began moving down just as the crew arrived. To my shock & awe, it was not 2 but 3 animals . ID info comes from the RI crew. The first to move down was said to have a NB on the head, which says Kaiwi (RK96). The next ,to my complete surprise , proved to be Sadie (RB12). I have her penciled to start her post wean molt , on or about 7-20-15. Only Sadie knows. I was completely unaware of Cass (RG06) being up there in the greenery, but she moved down next. For those that don’t keep track of the family trees, Sadie is Cass’ mom. She would depart while I was talking with the crew when they got back. The other two remained all day. Awaiting on island photos.

 Melanie called at 0929, advising that she, Thea & Karen Rohter were at the Reef Runway, in the company of Makaiwi (R4DF) & U’ilani (RN36).

 At 0740 a DanaTxt advised that Debbie was with an animal at Maili Point. Stacie & Rachel would ID the animal as Kimo Kai (RT12) at 1431. Debbie advised the he departed at 1738.

 Marilyn & Angie were once again at the End of the World today. They found Ka’ena (RO40), RIP(RR70) & an U/M at the point, and RL42 below the Waianae side KP trail.

 A Vicki HangaiTxt at 1827 advised that she was with Ua Malie&PO3 at the birth beach, and La’akea (RK82) at Right Spot’s Spot, Turtle Bay.
