November 8, 2026 Monday's Dailies

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:28 to 2:43 pm and there were four seals seen during that time.
Initially out on the berm on LPB was a Sub-adult Male: large juvenile to small sub-adult size, probably male, two tags, about 35% molted on the ventral side, dorsal still shows old coat.
About 30 feet Lanikai side of the 1BS was an Adult Male 1: adult size, newer coat, probably male, no tags seen. This might be R430.
About 20 feet on the Makapuu side of the 1BS was Adult Male 2: adult size, old coat, male belly and two red tags.
Another 30 feet in the Makapuu direction was Adult Male 3: adult size, new coat, male belly and two red tags.

Team R&B spotted three seals foraging off the outfall. One of the Unknown Adults had mint green face and clean coat. The second Unknown Adult had a clean coat and at one point the two were close enough together they got a photo.  The third seal with the others was
newly molted. That seal finally hauled out and they were able to ID RM31 Kai.
While there Team R&B witnessed another rescue today.

Next they checked out Plains and found a big seal on shore close to the water. It was KG89 Huakai. They were glad they made a quick ID because she left shortly after they arrived. A couple had walked up to her, and the lifeguard educated them, explaining the zone was set up for a reason.
