June 21, 2025 Saturday's Dailies

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island today from 12:20 to 1:50 pm and there were six seals seen during that time. (compared to the last few days it was slow)

Up against the cliff at the back of LPB rock flats were two seals. Marilyn thinks they were the two weaners, RU24 and RU38. She could not tell which weaner was which. They both had lighter ventrals and two red tags. At 1:16 pm, Marilyn realized that one of them had left.

On the Lanikai side of LPB was RK76 Kala and her pup PO11. There was no real activity to report.

On the 2BS of Middle Cliff was RL12 Aukai and PO12. The pup did move around mom some, but not much else was happening.

Team R&B had a good seal day. Their first stop at pokai they found a seal at the zen. It was R617, he was alone and resting.

Next near the rest camp area they saw a boat that they thought might be some type of a research boat. It appeared they were using a pole maybe to tag something or collect something. 

They spotted two seals from afar, and the lifeguards had made a zone for them. They got to the site after a bit, but the seals had left. They kept looking out at the water and spotted the two seals. They may have left with all the people cheering on the surfers riding the waves.

They were able to ID the female due to her big scar on her face, it was RH92 Nalani, who recently weaned her pup. The male was ID'd as Nalu R3CX.  They watched them for a long time, and saw that RH92 got a hold of an eel to feast on. She went toward the the canal. Then Team R&B lost sight of them.

Next stop at yoks where they found Miss BG R303 resting alone. There were six flags and one sign setting up a zone for her.  Today they noticed her applied bleach N26 on her lower body. 

There were lots of people out on the beaches and needless to say its upsetting when people ignore the signs and are too lazy to go around the seal.

As they were driving home they spotted a seal resting way out on shore at Waikomos. They went to check it out. There was an adult male, green on its coat, cc scar under belly and no tags. At first they thought it was RN14 Kalani. But after studying their photos they believe the male to be R416. His CC scar is a bit different than RN14.
