Yesterday our local hatchery, just a bike ride away, had a celebration and an opportunity for the community to help release the salmon back into the creek.
We got to see salmon fry that have been raised in the hatchery,
we observed dissected salmon,
and most excitingly, a real fry to take to the creek and release.
The fry swam so fast, we couldn’t catch a photo of it.
The beautiful creek and the beginning of a new journey for our salmon fry.
