Welcome to The world PK2!!

This little monk seal was born yesterday morning. I arrived on scene just a couple hours after his birth. His momma is known as RO28 or her Hawaiian name "Pohaku". Her young pup will be referred to as PK2 since he/she is the second seal pup born here on Kauai this year. Shortly after he/she is weaned the seal will receive their official science name and a possible Hawaiian name. Both momma and pup are doing great. Momma is very protective so visitors to the site must give her lots of space. 
Feeling pretty blessed to be on the scene such a short time after the pups have been born. 
Two week old PK1 is growing like a weed and swimming , well like a monk seal. I will be out at the site again later this week and will share more photos. 

Happy "Birth" day PK2!!!
