Chum Salmon

This is the first time in my life I have ever witnessed the process
of salmon coming into the stream to spawn.
I must say it is something unique to experience.

You watch as these salmon fight against all odds
to lay their eggs and fertilize them.
Upstream, dodging birds galore,
the fact that they are mutating and their body is eating itself,
and that is just the beginning...
That is even before they make it to spawning ground.
