March 1, 2024 Friday's Dailies

Todays dailies are brought to you by Marilyn and Team R&B💕  In yesterday's news department Tammy sent an update from Ka'ena Point.

Tammy went out to the point with Lesley on Thursday. Their first find was PvKauai RW02 and Holokai RG40 on the beach. There were both in the same area but not next to each other.
Next find at the point was R420 on the rocks and was an easy ID by his applied bleach. As they were hanging out a seal swam into the main pool, it was TA68 Lopaka. Lastly on the runway was R330 Squinty.
Along with the seals the whales were out putting on a show.

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:48 to 2:59 and there were four seals seen during that time.
Between 1BS and 2BS was a Juvenile Female 1: larger juvenile size, light gray female belly and two red tags.
About 50 feet Makapuu of the 3BS was an Unknown Sub-adult: subadult size, light gray belly, two red tags. Marilyn believes this could be a female who was initially almost completely hidden behind water front rocks.
On the rock flats Lanikai side of SRI was an Adult Female: adult size, light gray female belly and at least one red tag. This seal also had some sort of a scar on mid-neck area.
Initially almost completely hidden in the SRI channel was Juvenile Female 2: juvenile size, light yellow female belly, unsure about tags. She hauled out of the channel about 2:14. This could possibly be RS36 Pualani who was seen on a nearby beach yesterday. 

Team R&B had appointments today so they had a late start. The only seal they found today was RG28 Lefty, who was alone and resting comfortably.
Although they didn't find many seals today, they were not disappointed due to the show the dolphins and whales put on today.
