Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 1:06 to 2:32 pm and there were seven seals seen during that time.
Ultimately all three weaners hauled out at various places on LPB. All weaners seem to be doing finr and holding their own.
RM36 Nohea and her pup PO10 were in the Middle Cliff area. Marilyn saw one extended nursing session. The pup approached a Noddy Tern with its mouth open. The bird flew away. The pup is veryactive.
A Juvenile Female that Marilyn believes to be RU70 was among and later behind the rocks between the SRI and RRB. RU70 has a fairly green ventral and two red tags.
A Juvenile Female that Marilyn believes to be RU38 who looks like a sub-adult. RU38 first hauled out on the 1BS side of Middle Cliff, but RM26 was not happy and vocalized. Then RU38 entered the water and swam in the Makapuu direction and hauled out near the 3BS. Her two red tags were clearly visible.
Team R&B started their day checking out on the west side. At their first stop, at first didn't see anything, but then they saw this green thing. It was high up by the grassy area. Turns out it was RU12. She stayed there until 3:40 pm, then took off with the high tide.
Their next find was another small green seal with two red tags, that they spotted from afar. The little green seal took off and they lost sight of it in the surf. They believe this is RU22. Seems all the "U" cohorts are pretty green at this time. lol
Team R&B made their way to plains to check things out. There was only one seal on shore. It was thee lovely RL12 Aukai alone and away from all the pestering boyz.
Of course they went to the pup site to check on Momma Rocky RH58 and her pup PO11. They didn't do much today lots of snoozing. Team R&B did see a nursing session. There were flowers all along the SRA (how sweet) and one slipper that hit momma Rocky (WTH)
Team R&B did recheck Rocky and pup during the day. They had moved up the beach due to high tide.
