Got an update on the hawksbill turtle I reported to the Hawaii Hawksbill project. This one IS in their database and is one of their more frequently seen individuals. She is #MUI23 "Rocket Girl" and has been seen every year since 2007. This year she has been seen 4 times. She once had a radio transponder glued to her shell to see where she would go.

Got out swimming in Honolua bay yesterday. Rubbish conditions, but swimmable. Been extremely rough these last few weeks. The surfers have been happy, the snorklers not so much.
Saw a barracuda. Much smaller than the monster I saw a few weeks back, but a lot closer. This one flared his teeth at me, which did not make me happy.
