March 30, 2025 Sunday's Dailies

Todays dailies are brought to you by Marilyn and Team R&B💕

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:20 to 1:40 pm and there were two seals seen during that time. 

On the rock flats Lanikai side of SRI, were two seals. They entered the water shortly after Marilyn started viewing.  She saw they were playing off shore for almost an hour before they headed in the Makapuu direction and disappeared.

They were reported at UU 1: adult size, unsure about anything else. UU 2: probably sub-adult size, with light green ventral.

Team R&B started their day at pokai, but this morning was different in that there wasn't much at action. 

Nalu R3CX was foraging, he wasn't showing up as he normally does. There were boats & kayaks that passed so he stayed low. Team R&B could hardly see any schools of fish that are normally there..

They spotted a second seal and then it was gone.  But they heard a bellow and the seal was hauling out. They were happy to see RP28 Wakea.  A fisher was right where he coming in, and let him know he was coming up with a loud bark. This startled the fisher who just stood there, then finally moved away. 

RP28 Wakea mouthed the seaweed again, being a silly kid. He moved into the rocks hiding himself only to be visible to Team R&B.

At Kahe they found RP30 Puka alone on the rocks. He made his was into the shallow pond with his butt up in the air, and his head in the water. Later he hauled up to the left rocks and went to sleep.

At the outfall they saw four seals, all fighting among the snorkelers and swimmers.

They were able to ID R407 from his eye scar, natural bleach on the left side, no tags and cc scar.  One of the other seals had tags, but they couldn't tell much more than that. 

Walking back over to Kahe they suddenly saw a seal coming through all the snorkelers. The seal hauled up on the rocks, and that's when they recognized him. It was Kekoa Alii RL72. he looked a little trimmer and lots of scratches, but overall okay.
