The salmon are running! The salmon are running! If you live in #Olympia they’re at the dam by the lake. (Terrible resolution, but here’s a pic for proof.) #pnw #salmon #nature #chinook #olywa #salishsea #southsound #downtownoly

Disappointed in headline from https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/aug/18/tokitae-killer-whale-miami-seaquarium-dies-captivity "Star" "beloved" are not the right words for the orca kept captive in 80 feet by 35 feet and is 20 feet of water. #Tokitae #LummiNation #SalishSea #Orca #Miami #Sk'aliCh'elh-tenaut

I’m at an offsite work meeting and it’s a glorious sunny day and we’re meeting in a building with views of the south sound. I feel like I’ve made some good life decisions at this moment. #pnw #OlyWA #salishsea #cascadia

Reposting from Bradley James Lockhart (designer of the Orca Face flag) on Facebook:
‘A hockey team asked to use Orca Face on their jerseys and I gave them the thumbs up. Going to have to make a trip to Renton (I think that's where they are from?) to root for the "Yacht Flippers". Yes, this is real.’

Beautiful evening at Zuanich Point Park on a recent trip to Bellingham, WA. The goal of my trip there from Texas was to find a place to live when I move in late August. Goal accomplished! It was such a relief to be able to walk around on sunny days and evenings in late June without breaking a sweat. Had to return to heat indexes into the 110s in Texas.

I just stumbled upon another local instance similar to our own, right "next door" in the #SanJuanIslands called sanjuans.life. Hello over there @jeff, @LeeOnOrcas, et al.! I also appreciate this line in their description: "Local conversation, globally federated with the rest of the world." Nice concise explanation of the concept of a local server. I might steal that! #SanJuans #SalishSea #PNW #Cascadia #SubduedSocial #LocalServer #LocalInstance

My morning started with coffee, this view, and the Merlin app picking up on 19 different types of birds song, which together with the ducks, geese, cormorants that I saw, and some sort of dove I heard that was too far away to register on the Merlin app, made for a pleasant way to start the morning. #silentsunday #photography #birdsong #SalishSea

#Kelp has long been an important part of the #Samish diet and culture. The Samish Indian Nation's Department of Natural Resources dive team, formed in 2021, was created to gain a better understanding of the health of kelp forests, after elders noticed they weren't finding kelp fronds, which are traditionally used to wrap salmon.

Going to fish for lingcod for the first time tomorrow. The season just opened yesterday and we’re getting everything set. This is a jig head you attach to bait.
