Daily fish fact #268
Sockeye salmon!
Tumblr media
This species of salmon has bluegrey colouration while living in the ocean, but their body turns red when migrating upstream into their home rivers!
For real, it's quite drastic. Here's a mature sockeye salmon compared to a migrating mature sockeye salmon:

Near Higgens Point
Lake Coeur d' Alene Eagle Watch - November 2023
Each winter from November through February a migrating population of bald eagles visits the Lake Coeur d' Alene area to feed on spawning kokanee salmon. The BLM began counting bald eagles around Wolf Lodge Bay in 1974. The number of eagles returning to this area varies from year to year. Text Source BLM.GOV

Osprey Catching a Fish. For the Osprey, it (the Kokanee salmon) was a nice meal I'm sure.

Osprey flying away with a Kokanee salmon.
When an Osprey spots a fish from above, it hovers at a height of 10 to 30 m and waits until the fish is in a suitable position. Then, in a remarkable performance, it hits the surface with its wings half closed and claws stretched forward, and disappears underneath in a great splash of water. It usually resurfaces some seconds later with a fish firmly grasped in its claws.
Ospreys possess long legs and large feet, hooked talons and a reversible outer toe that allow them to easily grip fish with two toes pointing forward and two pointing to the back. Their strong wings are adapted to give maximum lift from the water with a heavy fish.

Customer: Where are all the fish?
Me: What are you hoping to catch?
Customer: Anything at this point.
Me: You in a boat or on the shore?
Customer: I brought my boat.
Me: Splake? Kokanee? Trout?
Customer: Hell, let's say splake.
Me: Jigging with tube gitzits. The small ones. Middle of the lake. 20-40 feet down. Pink works best.
Customer: And the salmon?
Me: Just off the shore by Twin Creeks. The moss line gets pushed out, so you don't have to worry about it. Corn or garlic smelly jelly and nightcrawlers.
Customer: ...Wanna just go with me?

Actually gonna ask about the context of your name hzrn because ive wondered about it quite a bit... The sounds in it make me think its arabic so maybe حزر which means to guess which may be an allusion to how im guessing at what your name means. But that lacks an n so حَزَرْنَا we guessed? But also im hazarding a guess that maybe your dialect is one where ذ is /z/? So حَذَرٍ, a warning?
now, you aren't that far off actually! it does come from arabic, but not a common word. i wasn't aware of the "warning" meaning when i picked it, but i won't say it wasn't extra motivation to keep it, so i'd say it counts as context (like. it's not the sausage of the hotdog, but it's the relish. it helped the name stick) (oh yeah and my dialect does make ذ /z/. bc im guessing of the fact that the community and the fact that my dad (ذ to /z/ dialect) is a native speaker and my mom (ذ /ð/)).
anyways. if you want the direct answer, it basically goes like this. i was named muncee since idk, at the latest february last year? and then i went through late june and all of july where i was isolated and no one referred to me as muncee at all. and then when i came back i experimented a little with it, tried out the name cokanee (combining coke,the fizzy drink, and kokanee, a species of salmon) but it didn't stick. then, on november 7, i had an irreversible gender event, and decided to adopt the name June. but that couldn't be my online name, and it felt weird to just keep my online name the same through all this (i eventually got over the weirdness, as you can tell from the you are ell). So i looked around, trying to find a new name. I picked up jpeg2000 for a bit but it couldn't stick.
and then one day i was in the masjid for the potluck and i was bored and alone and browsing wiktionary when a thought was sparked: hey! june in turkish is haziran!" i wondered what it is in arabic... "well ok it comes from the word june it's similar. oh hey wiktionary lists حَزِيرَان haziran as another word for it! I'm a fan!" But i didn't just wanna name myself straight Haziran, so i stripped it down to just the consonants for fun. (in retrospect part of that was probably motivated by me forgetting it was حزيران and not حزرن but whatever). I was tired of being in a name rut (not unlike where i was in late jan early feb 2022, just before i adopted the name Muncee. I felt so adrift, constantly picking up and dropping names, throwing them at the wall with epic strong force but nothing stuck), and so i decided to leap with great impulse and intention on the first name i saw that, i liked, was my idea and, i felt good about in general.
now i'm cool with both hzrn and muncee. i like having multiple names! it's a fun little thing. before the late-june isolation i had a bit of a name hoard too, with names such as Mwanz and Hi. Now i don't really go by those names any more. a third may be brewing though... Remember to subscribe to our channel and turn on the bell to be sure you don't miss the announcement. Thanks for watching, and [catchphrase]!

Far Cry 5 True Facts
Mammals
American Black Bear: Unlike the Canadian Black Bear, these ones are loud, entitled, and don’t apologize after killing you.
Bison: A baby bison is called a “red dog” because the people who name things lack basic education. Also, humans slaughtered 50 million of them. 50 MILLION!
Caribou: Reindeer and caribou are the same animal, only reindeer put on airs because they’re European.
Cougar: Cougars have similar body types to house cats, only on a larger scale. Both types of cats are also giant assholes.
Elk: Elk are vegetarian, but are known to eat meat such as nestlings or bird eggs on rare occasions. Which makes them the animal equivalent of your old college roommate.
Grey Wolf: Wolves develop close relationships and strong social bonds. They are also known to hit the clubs after getting their pump on.
Grizzly Bear: These omnivores are known to eat berries, fish, and, according to the Secretary of Education, children.
Hare: Hares are adamant that they’ve never lost a race and warn everyone against believing FAKE NEWS from the Mainstream Tortoise Media.
Moose: Moose are incredibly near-sighted, but are too cheap to pay for laser eye surgery.
Pronghorn: Pronghorns are the second fastest mammal, behind the cheetah, but cheetahs are almost extinct so the Pronghorns are happy to wait it out.
Rat: A Rat can survive for up to years in the wild, but only about two days in the mob.
Skunk: Skunks will only spray when threatened, as they live life under the principle “don’t start none. won’t be none.”
White Tailed Deer: Like a human, an adult Deer has thirty-two teeth. Unlike a human, it will floss after every meal without fail.
Wild Boar: Wild Boar are like pigs, only they party harder.
Wolverine: They’re the best at what they do, and what they do is secrete a foul smelling yellow liquid from their anal scent glands.
Birds
Bald Eagle: You probably think Bald Eagles are bold, majestic hunters, but they actually eat trash and steal food from other birds. USA! USA! USA!
Duck: Duck penises are corkscrew shaped which is super handy for opening bottles of wine while camping.
Ruffed Grouse: The Ruffed Grouse is a non-migratory bird that forgets the fact that at one time, one of their ancestors migrated from somewhere.
Turkey: These large birds are the main event of every Thanksgiving dinner and signal the beginning of insane sales where people die trying to get a “deal.”
Turkey Vulture: A turkey and a vulture had a regrettable one-night stand. One of them believed life begins at conception and look at that... a new species!
Fish
Largemouth Bass: The Largemouth Bass is similar to the Smallmouth Bass, only that the mouth is larger. Really, it’s all there in the name.
Rock Bass: Rock Bass are fresh water fish who don’t have a problem with being around human activity. They are completely unimpressed by everything we do. Everything.
Smallmouth Bass: It is the male Bass that stays back and guards the eggs. They are the stay-at-home dads of the fish world.
Bull Trout: Bull Trout are an extremely sensitive species that don’t tolerate high levels of sediment in their streams or any other environmental microaggressions.
Golden Trout: Different types of trout are capable of mating and producing viable offspring, but they’ve remained distinct for thousands of years because trout are super racist.
Lake Trout: Lake Trout can be difficult to find because of their preference for cold, dark, and murky lower depths. You can also find them trolling online forums.
Rainbow Trout: Rainbow Trout are the state’s number one game fish and they never shut up about it. We get it, you won. Stop reminding us every day.
Arctic Grayling Salmon: Arctic Graylings can be identified by their colorful and very large dorsal fin. Fly that fin loud and proud, you majestic creatures.
Chinook Salmon: The Chinook swims from the ocean back to freshwater where it spawns then dies. It’s sad, but you can never go home again.
Kokanee Salmon: The Kokanee are land-locked, and only live in freshwater. Like all salmon they die after spawning, which isn’t such a bad way to go really.
Paddlefish Sturgeon: Paddlefish caviar is a hot commodity, but even if you harvest the eggs yourself, you can���t take them outside. Isn’t that just like the government to think they have a say over someone else’s eggs?
Pallid Sturgeon: The Pallid Sturgeon has no teeth. It eats by sucking in its food and that’s why they’re known as the meth heads of the sea.
Plants
Jimson Weed: This nightshade was named “Jamestown weed” after soldiers there ate it and got blasted. YOLO.
Lupine: A wolf-like destroyer of soil quality. They say full moons don’t affect it, but we all know the truth.
Mustard: That yellow condiment in your fridge starts from this plants and is made in another type of plant.
Prairie Fire: It hooks up with neighboring plants, steals nutrients, and gives flowers. Sounds like THAT ex.
Prickly Lettuce: The leaves of this annual are bitter like life itself. Unlike life itself, you can put it in a salad.

Life update I'm doing a series of paintings of 6 fish native to the Pacific NW. I want to do Montana specifically but the kokanee vs sockeye salmon debacle has me confused on if sockeye's are technically native or not
