I stopped up top the road above Makapuu Beach at 0708 and once found an apparently overnighted Right Spot (R016) in her exact location from yesterday. Her female belly, and right side NB confirmed ID. The HMMA Hotline was notified.At 0740 I was at Makai Pier but could see nobody visible until at 0945 Aka’s dome first appeared behind the rocks at the left end. He began his move up to be beach area and remained the day.
At 0724 Team Billand reported Ka’ale (RH32) at Kahe Pt.They had gotten a call about an animal at Paradise Cove, but had been run off on the arrival. It had been said that it was a small, green face animal. They returned to Kahe Pt again.
On arrival at 0937 they found that RN14 had joined Ka’ale at Kahe Pt.
Tammy & Dave were out and around up the upper east side again today. They reported R5AY at Hauula, at 0842. R5 is definitely molting. Unsure of exact percentage.At 0933 T&D discovered RI37 at Kuilima Hotel beach area. Thanks for another trek guys !!! Their shots indicate that RI37 is beginning to show molt, but no percentage.
Vicki Hangai also sent late entry to having see R5AY at Hauula. Thanks Vicki !
