Sunday 8-24-25, Seventeen Manta Rays at Keauhou Bay, Kona, Hawaii.  
We saw Alexia, Amanda, Big Bertha, Emma, Grayer, Jana, Kailey, Kamala, Kenzie, Koie, Magdala, Margo, Milky, Manta Ria, Mighty Q, Queenie and Vallaray. 
Plankton good. A 3 on the 0-5 LN scale. 
First time I’ve met Milky Ray a baby male first ID’d in June.  He looked about 6’ wingspans but very slightly built. Did not come into the brightly illuminated areas but interacted w me over the reef and was not shy at all.  
Mighty Q has an awful looking dorsal injury just forward of her dorsal fin.  
We found a pretty nice free diving mask and snorkel which in Jack’s Lost & Found at Coconut Groove Market Place.
