7:07 a.m.: Closeup of one of these bigger fish swimming by.

5:18 p.m.: Several bigger fish swimming by.

8:22 p.m.: Big fish swimming by.

8:30 a.m.: The water is very cloudy, and lots of little fish seem to be feeding on the debris flowing by.

I like the position of the cam. It's interesting to be able to see up to the surface of the water. The cam seems offline today, though.

Some of you know that Hancock Wildlife hopes to get a long overdue new website this fall. I've been asked to put out a call for a volunteer with Wordpress experience.

We also need help locating some good resolution photography to use on the website that we have permissions to use. Doesn't have to just be eagles, but other birds, wildlife, environmental photos, etc. They need to be clean, crisp, a decent resolution and reasonably large as well. They should be at least 1024 pixels wide, ideally 1920 or larger. We can always shrink an image. We can't usually enlarge one without image quality degrading.

Contact: [email protected] and send a Cc: to [email protected] Thanks so much.

6:26 p.m.: Thank you to the person who cleaned off the camera lens. It looks beautiful now! Some larger fish are swimming by.

9:26 am I watched the murky water for 5 minutes for a fish to come by. Finally was rewarded with a smallish sockeye. My son, who is an avid sports fisherman, tells me the sockeye run is very small this year and much to his chagrin only commercial fisherman are allowed to catch them!
