January 29, 2026 Thursday's Dailies

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

Tammy went out to Ka'ena Point today with Lesley. They had a good day, seeing seals, whales and albatross, not to mention the albatross chicks have begun to hatch.

Their first seal was PvKauai RW02 on the rocks island. Near him on the coral was R330 Squinty. At the runway was RL47 Kamakana. Just when they thought it was going to be a boys day, they found two females down the way. There was Mohala RP24 and Luana RN58.

The last seal they spotted today was R420 hauling out near RL47. Fun fact Kamakana and Mohala are both Rabbit Island seals! Along with everything else they saw a mockingbird with nesting material. (hopefully I labeled all the seals correctly)

Team R&B searched the area and was coming up empty. But then their first find were whales out not that far. There were some kayaks in the area. A calf was active and Team R&B were loving it. They finally got to see some breaching!

Then they spotted multiple seals at electric beach. The first to be ID'd was RP28 Wakea. He took off about 1:00 pm. The second to be ID'd was their big boy RH32 Kaale. They continued to watch from afar, and ID'd a third seal. It was RN14 Kalani.

Lastly they spotted a few more seals at Kahe. At first there were three seals all resting on the rocks.

There was RG32 who was with R416 Makakii. Left to them wasRL20 Kalani, he was on his own. Later on RS32 arrived and stayed to the right. They noted that RS32 might have a hook on her hind flipper.

January 27, 2026 Tuesday's Dailies

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

Marilyn viewed Rabbit Island from 12:17 to 2:08 pm and there were three seals seen during that time.

At 12:55 pm a Juvenile Female showed up on LPB: juvenile size, older coat with yellow female belly and two tags.

Behind waterfront rocks near 3BS was an Adult Male: adult size, gray male belly, no info on tags. Marilyn kept hoping he would move up the beach, but he never did.

Between 3BS and SRI was a Sub-adult Female: sub-adult size, light yellowish female belly, Marilyn did not see tags, but they could have been there.

Team R&B made the rounds and didn't see any seals. They waited around and finally at pokai they spotted a small seal way up land. The seal was alone and it was the adorable RU12. She was well hidden and resting peacefully.

Then over at Kahe they were happy to see two seals on the rocks. There was RG32 and R416 Makalii next to each other. The two males were getting some rest and peacefully hanging out together.

From afar they saw people near two seals as they were hauling out at electric beach. The two were ID'd as RP28 Wakea and RH32 Kaale.

There were so many people that the seals entered the water. Thankfully they came back up again. Then Team R&B saw two more seals on the water at the shoreline trying to haul up. But the two seals were close to the people taking photos and the seals headed out to the outfall area. They were not able to get an ID on the two so they were

reported as Unknowns.

Team R&B made their way over to electric beach and found Kaale and Wakea still on shore.

While checking out all the action with Kaale and Wakea they spotted another seal hauling up at tracks. They checked it out and found the lovely Miss R604.

Team R&B made one last stop and was happy they did. There on shore at Makaha was the lovely Leia RL42. Someone had put up three signs that were close, but at least there was something out there.
