We stopped to see Chief last week after the big rains. She showed us these photos. She and Mya went to Dry Creek which is full of water from the hard rain. Little Mya was singing the salmon song and then she began to yell “Grandma! Grandma! Run4Salmon!” And much to Chief’s surprise two salmon were swimming in the creek!!! What a special day. Little Mya sang the salmon in. This is the dry creek Chief wants connected to Cow Creek and have McCloud river run through it to successfully bypass the dam. I pray for good things coming!!!!
Today we went to see Chief again and talked about the rain, the dry creek beds filling with water, the ponds coming back. Everywhere there are salmon and fish coming in. Salt Creek had salmon spawning. We went to see them the weekend. But today, Chief had taken Mya and NetChi to school and saw a figure in a pond, once dry, now full. She got out of the car? More salmon, she wondered, It was an otter, who saw her and started gliding full steam toward her to greet her. I am so happy and will put that video here for you. The otter must have recognized the leader who prays for the water, and prays for the salmon's return, and in fact knows exactly how to bring back the original DNA eyed eggs of the McCloud River Chinook, and has a plan to connect Dry Creek and Cow Creek to the lake for the salmon to return around the dam, and then the fingerlings to go out to where Cow Creek meets the Sacramento to go out to sea to live. I pray for Good things coming!!!
