Black birds feed

 

Black birds were feeding on the residue of the Kokanee spawning run of a few months ago. Truth in advertising: that is black birds, not blackbirds.

A raven scavenged the remains of a long-dead Kokanee — not terribly appetizing to our eyes.

A dipper found a fertilized egg on the stream bed, and quickly downed it.
