Mass die off of fish attracts rare seabirds to the farthest points inland that anyone can remember. Experts say the exact cause has not been determined, however, it could have been weather and temperature related. đđđ Jeremy Trump, a fish biologist with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, confirmed there has been a die-off of shad and said it consisted mostly of juvenile fish. Denny also speculated the hot summer played a role, causing more of the juvenile shad to swim upriver seeking cooler water. As the seasons changed, the larger than normal population then exhausted its food supply, leading many to die of starvation.

The demise of hundreds of American shad, described by wildlife officials attracted huge numbers of birds to the Lower Snake River to dine on the dead and dying fish. Among them were gulls rarely, or never, seen in this area before. Never seen anything like the numbers of dead fish as well as the flocks flying in to feast on them.
On a field trip to Lower Monumental Dam a few weeks ago, Denny said he and others observed flocks of gulls numbering in the thousands made up of least 10 different species. That number of different gull species âis unheard of in the interior of the Pacific Northwest,â he said.
Among the visitors was a slaty-backed gull, a bird native to Asia and not expected to be seen anywhere east of the Cascades. Itâs appearance was the first recorded sighting of the bird in Eastern Washington, Denny said.

Two other âsuper rareâ visitors were a group of lesser black-backed gulls, a Eurasian species, and a glaucous gull. The glaucous is normally found in the Arctic and is the largest gull in the world with a wingspan that can reach up to 64 inches, Denny said.
A case of Pacific Oyster Mortality Syndrome (POMS) has been confirmed in a second oyster growing region in southern Tasmania.
Oysters Tasmania, which represented growers, said the disease was confirmed at Pipe Clay Lagoon, south-east of Hobart.
The deadly oyster disease was first found in Ironstone Oyster's lower Pittwater lease 30 kilometres away.
It killed all 2.5 million oysters at the lease.
Neighbouring growers in lower Pittwater also reported high mortalities and they are also being treated as POMS.
Oysters Tasmania CEO Neil Stump said the new confirmed case of POMS at Pipe Clay Lagoon is at one lease, but it was expected to spread to others nearby.
POMS is not harmful to humans but has wiped out entire growing regions in New South Wales in recent years.
Local stock movements are banned and New South Wales and South Australia halted all Tasmanian oyster spat imports.

Over 150 turtles were washed ashore on a beach in Puri, India. Indian artist Sudarsan Pattnaik created sand sculptures of turtles just beside them. He also wrote an inscription, reading âGive us space to liveâ to make as an appeal to the Indian government to initiate an inquiry into the causes of the deaths and to increase the protection of sea animals.
