This time of year, it sometimes never gets very bright during the day. Heavy cloud cover combined with the low elevation of the sun result in a sort of day-long twilight. Even at 2:30pm when this photo was taken, there was so little light and contrast that the camera’s auto focus did not work.

Gulls feed on pink salmon spawning in Indian River.

While walking at the park yesterday morning, Connor and I noticed this fog/mist hanging over the river. Connor thought it was from the stink of the dying salmon, since he had apparently previously seen it on the flume when salmon were dying in it. I’m not convinced that’s what it is from, though I guess it might be related to the fish in the stream (I don’t really remember whether I’ve seen it when there aren’t salmon in the river).
