Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 3:02 to 4:03 om and there was only one seal seen during that time.
Between 3BS and SRI was an Adult Female: adult size, at least one red tag and mottled gray female belly.
Earlier in the morning Marilyn was out and once again spotted weaner RT62 Ka'iwa. She was hauled out when Marilyn arrived, then shemoved up into the leaves and went into snooze mode. She was ID'd by her small weaner size, applied N22 bleach, T62/63 tags and tannish brown female belly.
Team R&B arrived at rest camp and spotted R3CX Nalu and RH48 Lei Ola further out. Both stayed away from the other two seals as well as a couple of sharks in the area.
Team R&B noted that when the sharks are in the seals go further out and so do the dolphins.
Also out there today were RL20 Kalua and RM31 Kai. The two of them put on a show for all to see. They noted that RL20 seems to chase RM31 all the time. At first they spotted them hugging and then it turned into a chase and fight, splashing all over the place.
Team R&B had checked several other areas and didn't see any other seals until late in the afternoon. They spotted a seal from afar at tracks. It appears to be a male, new coat, they thought it might be RH32 Kaale. They didn't go to the site to get a closer look mostly because of traffic at that time of day.
