December 15, 2025 Monday's Dailies

Todays dailies are brought to you by Team R&B 💕
An update to the Unknown Male that has been hanging out at Iroquois has been ID'd by NOAA as R427. He has only been seen on Oahu a few times in the past couple of years, and has been seen on Big Island and Kauai. His best identifiers are left chest scarring, hind flipper notches and deep line creases on the sides of his muzzle.

Team R&B started their day at Pokai and found Miss Leina RL70. She was in her favorite spot where the native flowers bloom. She was so still and getting lots of rest  in this crappy weather. When they went back later she was gone.

They headed over to yoks and found RG28 Lefty high up on the shore. He is about 80% molted and
resting peacefully.
While onsite they saw a seal from afar and made their way to the area. The tourist were all heading over. They ID'd RP30 Puka and he soon scooted his way to the water once the crowds where around.

They got a call about a seal at Nimitz so they made their way over. When they got to the area they found old dude R407 Kawika. He for sure likes this area. 

Team R&B made the rounds today with a little break in the weather.
They found R416 Makalii snoozing at Nimitz. She was on shore on this cold, breezy drizzly day. He looked healthy peaceful and content.

They continued their search and over at Electric Beach they spotted two seals on shore. It was RL08 with the lovely RL12 Aukai. They were both snoozing peacefully.
Team R&B realized they hadn't see their boy Nalu R3CX. So they went looking and were happy to find him out there foraging as usual.
While watching over Nalu they educated some folks they were asking what they were taking pictures of. As Team R&B were walking away
they saw there was a commotion in the water. At first they thought it was a shark, but watching carefully they saw there was a small seal with Nalu. The lighting was dark but they managed to get on tag shot and confirmed the little one was RU40. Then they saw another seal with a scar on its neck and figured out it was RL70.   It was a good seal day.
