Marilyn made it to the pier today but when she arrived and flash flood warning was posted she didn't stay long. She mentioned on the 4:00 news a sinkhole had formed on Kalanianaole Hwy near Makapuu which closed the road in both directions. Its a good thing she left when she did.
She only stayed for about a half hour and there were six seals during her viewing.
On the shoreline down from the 3BS were two seals:
Adult Male: adult size, older coat, mottled tan male belly and no info on tags.
A short distance Makapuu of the AM and mostly hidden behind waterfront rocks was an Unknown Unknown #1: probably sub-adult to adult size, no info on sex or tags,
Near the SRI channel was Juvenile Unknown #1: juvenile size, older coat no info on sex or tags.
On the rock flats between SRI and RRB were two seals about 20 feet apart:
Sub-adult Unknown: newer coat. no info on sex or tags.
Juvenile Unknown #2: larger juvenile size, older coat with some green, no info on sex or tags.
Out on RRB was Unknown Unknown #2: probably juvenile to sub-adult size, older coat, no info on sex or tags.
Team R&B were out early making the rounds without finding any seals. They went back later to check on the area and found Miss Kala RH76. She was alone resting at her zen area. She is looking very large these days.
There was a bird hunting in the tide pools, but it didn't catch anything.
Continuing to look they didn't find anymore seals. The area was full of dead vana, that Barb started to
collect them. Then she noticed the awful smell.
collect them. Then she noticed the awful smell.
There are Kukui nuts all over the beach and lots of debris. The water continues to be brown.
They saw saw a turtle land but it quickly left.
Off of Tracks area they noticed a large buoy floating. Seems the storm brought it in.. Then the dark black clouds were coming so they called it a day.
