March 4, 2024 Monday's Dailies

Todays dailies are brought to you by Team R&B💕  In the yesterdays news department I got an email from posse pal Kathy O.

Kathy was at Ewa Beach on Sunday early morning and sat with a very large female seal. Kathy was told she had hauled out the night before.  The Unknown Female stayed all day, only moving down by the water in the afternoon. Then about 6 pm she moved back higher on shore. 

Kathy did check this morning and she was still there. She called the hotline to report that she had spent the night.

Team R&B got a text from a friend of five seals out by kahe, so they hurried over.  When they got there all five seals were in the water, lots of splashing, fighting going on and it was way too difficult to make any IDs from afar. Finally one hauled out at electric beach, it was RH32 Kaale.

They got another call of a seal hauling in near the shack at plains. They headed over and upon arriving they found the lovely Miss Aukai RL12.  She was resting and was in a very nice protection zone.

Heading back to kahe to check if other seals had arrived. There on the rocks were two more critters, RG28 Lefty and R407 Kawika.

At another west side location they found their last seal of the day. There was RM31 Kai alone resting up on high rocks.

Their day ended with lots of whales, they spotted at least four pods.

 Team Billand found Haupu at white plains.... there was a lot of activity surrounding her... and Team Billand did their usual at calming the crowds.

Meanwhile at Ewa Beach Rocky made an appearance.... perhaps she's on her way to Kauai.

In Barb's note she mentioned an adorable Franklin family having dinner together... babies with mom and pop... This is not what I was expecting to see... but they ARE pretty cute. Thanks for sharing Barb.

3-24-2013 Potential Disaster - Interrupted by good samaritan

As mentioned in DB's post this net was called in by a Team Billand posse member.... Thank goodness for that. And then above and beyond this diver who went in to get the net, which in itself is extremely dangerous.

Personally I have never seen a net laid outside of the water.... THAT is insane!!!  No need for that, a person could easily get caught up in that.... I would like to wrap the person who put it there in it and have them just hang in the water for a bit..... Anyway, I just want to say thank you and how grateful for all that helped out today..... this would have been awful had you not intervened. 

 Look at this thing!!
