EDITORS COMMENTS
Love is in the Air! A Sneak Peek into Sockeye Salmon's Secret Romance". In this enchanting print captured by Alex Mustard, we witness a captivating moment of love and secrecy in the heart of Huihil Creek. A pair of vibrant Sockeye salmon, also known as Oncorhynchus nerka, gracefully rest on their redd - a shallow stream bed where they lay their eggs. But wait, there's more to this picture-perfect scene! The female takes center stage with her dazzling pink hue while the male stands guard behind her. It seems like he can't take his eyes off his beloved partner. Talk about relationship goals! The lush woodland surrounding the creek adds an element of mystery to this underwater rendezvous. Sunlight gently filters through the trees, casting mesmerizing lens flares that dance upon the flowing water. As these majestic creatures migrate through Fraser River in British Columbia during October, they find solace and safety in these hidden depths. With caution and apprehension, they protect their precious secret from prying eyes. This extraordinary glimpse into nature's wonders reminds us that even beneath tranquil waters lies a world full of passion and devotion. So next time you stumble upon a riverbed or stream, keep your senses alert – you might just uncover some fishy romance unfolding right before your eyes!
