COHO COMING BACK

For the first time in the nine years that I have volunteered at the little fish hatchery on Hyde Creek, the Coho salmon have come back to spawn in very big numbers.  It is wonderful to see so many of the fish that we have tried to bring back to the creek coming home to fill the creek.

Years of work have finally paid off for us - and for the Coho.
