Viewing Salmon at the Rail Road Bridge Park

The Sequim High Salmon Coalition walked along different side streams, and main streams in search of salmon, big and small. Along the acute streams we discovered salmon fry schools. The fry were cautiously crowding beneath the shadowed estuaries, safe from predators. We continued on the trails to the main stream looking out for bigger salmon, but none were found. Our mentor Reed, showed us how to identify various different types of plants including: Himalayan/Native Blackberry, Western Red Cedar, Alder, Oregon Grape, and Big Leaf Maple. On the way back to our ride home we looked at an invasive species called Herb Robert, which are usually found on trails, stuck onto different animals and people going through.
