This picture looks up the creek and shows the struggle facing the pinks as they fight their way against the current, rocks and other debris. Then there are the predators:
seals, whales and fishermen at the mouth of the creek and up the creek: bears, eagles, ravens, otters, sea gulls and even dogs We watched a Labrador Retriever escape her owner, plunge into the creek and chase the fish in all directions, some of them back downstream losing all the ground they had struggled so hard to make. Sad. The dog was eventually leashed quite a way downstream.
We are still in awe of this natural drama and Roy and I spend time every day, taking a coffee or lunch down to the creek to sit for a while and watch it play out.
