April 28, 2023 Fridays' Dailies

Todays dailies are brought to you by Team R&B and yours truly.

Team R&B were back on the beaches today. Their first stop they found two seals. RP30 Puka was on seal inlet and RL08 was up on high rocks.

Next stop at the bay they found three seals.  

Kala RH76 was with an Unknown Adult. The U/A had a tag and natural bleach on hind flippers but they just couldn't read the tag or come up with an ID. I know they hate when that happens.

Then there was Kalua RL20 on the rocks alone.

I was able to view Rabbit Island today with clearer skies. (Marilyn is away so I am covering for her).

There were six seals on island today.

RB12 Sadie and PO4 were on LPB. They had a very long nursing session with a little rolling around. I thought I saw a NB on PO4's head on the left side. None of the photos confirm this, but it would be great if there were. Sadie is still carrying her weight and her N12 applied bleach was visible. 

RF34 Pua and PO3 were close to the shore line on the rocks in front of the 2BS. PO3 has really grown, at one point the kid looked fatter than mom. It's coloring is still really dark and I couldn't see its muzzle well enough to see if that was lighter.

There were two seal by the rocks near the 3BS. It was apparent when they were side by side one was a Juvenile with two red tags. They other was a subadult to adult male.
