October 17, 2019 (part 2) Lesley's Ka'ena update

We headed out to the point at 5am this morning. We had to get out there and start working on the Shearwater Count before sunrise. Then it was a long and successful day.
Team Tammy & Dave joined us on the second part of the project. The hands on count, or shall I say on our four count. Our legs are aching and our smiles are wrapping behind out ears.
As they arrived they mentioned having seen a big seal at 10Mnts Beach and that it looked like RR70 "RIP" our check on the way back confirmed it was him. I had overnighted there on the Naupaka line. There's still no sign of molt.
Heading home I spotted 2 seals at Camp Erdman Pt so I went there to ID them: RW02 "PVKauai" and R303 "BG" also still no molt sign on either one of them.  
More tomorrow 🌺
