Spawners in Fauntleroy Creek – and the public is invited

UPDATE: As of Saturday, salmon watchers on Fauntleroy Creek had tallied 34 vigorous coho spawners. The first arrived last Saturday and more have followed daily. With rain and 11-foot tides in the offing, the Fauntleroy Watershed Council has scheduled an all-ages open creek on Sunday, 1:00-3:00 pm. Dress for the weather and make your way to the fish ladder viewpoint at SW Director and upper Fauntleroy Way SW. A volunteer will invite you down to creek level to check out the habitat, ask questions, and maybe see spawners. Children should bring a parent and dogs should be on leash.
