Considering first the possible meaning of the 4 moa glyphs we notice a peculiarity: Ha2-25, Ha2-28, and Ha2-31, come as final glyphs in triplets, and I guess that is their natural place - they announce 'dawn' - something new is around the corner. But moa in Ha2-35 is the first glyph in its triplet. Maybe Ha2-35 for some reason must come 7 glyphs later than his twin in Ha2-28. 7, 28, and 35 are moon numbers. A strange birth (hanau) is taking place in Ha2-32 (where the numbers could allude to the 'multiplying force' of sun). Ha2-33 confirms: growth (kai) is in front. Together with the parallel glyphs in P and Q we can see there is a kind of fish here:
Possibly it is the shark which reappears 5 glyphs later (Ha2-37). Ha2-36 is in some way related to the shark, and - this is important - day 87 'happens to be' equal to 58 + 87 / 3. Similarly 25 in Ha2-25 echoes in day number 25 from Ha1-1, and we should remember that atariki in Ga1-24 also is day number 25 (from Gb8-30). It is a shark with mouth shut, maybe a new moon shark:
If it is a new moon shark (87 / 3 = 29), then the next phase will be waxing and its mouth must open in order to 'suck' (omo). These 6 days end with day 88, which agrees rather well with what we have found in G:
Although the 'atariki' in G was located in day 83, not in day 87, they both carry signs of darkness (9 * 29 = 261 respectively 87 / 3 = 29). Days 84 and 88 should indicate the arrival of light:
