Feeding Fry

This spring we will be helping to care for thousands of baby chum salmon who will be released into Piper's Creek at Carkeek Park, make their way to the Sound, and then hopefully return this fall to spawn. Here we are at the imprint ponds taking a look at the first batch of fry ready to be fed!
Here are our "tools"
I believe there are about 55K fish in here? I have to double check the log book.
We have to scoop out the dead ones and count all the "morts"

Jasper is pointing out the fry that need to be fed!

Jasper is demonstrating how we'll help them down the creek once the first batch are released in four weeks.
