 | Treasa Ní Cheannaigh - A Phlúirín na mBan Donn Og 1984 Dá dtiocfá liomsa go Condae Liatrom', A phlúirín na mban donn óg, Do bhéarfainn mil bheach is mead mar bhia dhuit, A phlúirín na mban donn óg. Bradáin gheala a thabharfainn aniar chughat, Fíon agus beoir ann le n-ól ina ndiaidh siúd, Cead codlata go socair i leaba chlúimh éan dhuit, A phlúirín na mban donn óg. Ó do chonaic mé chugam í trí láir a' tsléibhe, Mar 'bheadh réaltán ins a' gceo, Is do bhí mé ag caint is ag comhrá léi Go ndeachamar go páirc na mbó. Shuíomar síos cois taobh an fháil Go dtugas-sa di scríofa faoi mo láimh, Nach raibh aon ní dá n-iarrfadh sí ná triallfainn dh'fháil Do phlúirín na mban donn óg. Á, ní rachaidh mise leatsa, 's ní maith dhuit bheith do m'iarraidh, Dúirt plúirín na mban donn óg. Mar ná choinneodh do ghlórtha beo gan bia mé, Dúirt plúirín na mban donn óg. Míle céad fearr liom bheith choíche gan fhear Ná bheith 'siúl drúchta na ngleannta leat, Is go dtug mo chroíse grá agus gean duit, Arsa phlúirín na mban donn óg. If you'd come with me to County Liatrom, O brown-haired flower of maidens, I'd give you honey and mead for food, O brown-haired flower of maidens. Bright salmon I'd bring back to you, Wine and beer to drink after that, You could sleep sound in a bed of down, O brown-haired flower of maidens. Oh, I saw her toward me through the mountains, Like a star approaching in the mist, And I was talking and conversing with her Till we reached the cows' pasture. We sat down beside the road And I swore to her in writing, That nothing she lacked but I'd rove out to find For the brown-haired flower of maidens. Ah, I'll not go with you, and it's no good your asking, Said the brown-haired flower of maidens, For your speeches won't keep me alive without food, Said the brown-haired flower of maidens, A thousand times better that I were single forever Than to be walking the dewy glens with you, And that my heart gave you love and affection, Said the brown-haired flower of maidens.

Music: Keeping the Shiny Side Up - Cook County Blues Band Live - free concert show, i think about eight or ten years ago (Justin Smith - teen blues wizard) filmed in my back yard alaska 8-14-08 http://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/pr/species/fish/sockeyesalmon.htm The size of an adult returning to spawn may measure up to 2.8 feet (86 cm) in length and weigh an average of 8 pounds (3.6 kg).The adult spawners are unique in appearance. They typically turn bright red, with a green head; hence they are commonly called "red" salmon in Alaska. During the ocean and adult migratory phase, sockeye often have a bluish back and silver sides, giving rise to another common name, "bluebacks." The name "sockeye" is thought to have been a corruption of the various Indian tribes' word "sukkai." Adults migrate from a marine environment into freshwater streams and rivers or lakes of their birth in order to mate (called anadromy). They spawn only once and then die (called semelparity). Sockeye salmon exhibit a wide variety of life history patterns that reflect varying dependency on the freshwater environment. With the exception of certain river-type and sea-type populations, the vast majority of sockeye salmon spawn in or near lakes, where the juveniles rear for 1 to 3 years prior to migrating to sea. For this reason, the major distribution and abundance of large sockeye salmon stocks are closely related to the location of rivers that have accessible lakes in their watersheds for juvenile rearing. Females spawn in 3 to 5 redds (nests) over a couple of days. Hatching usually occurs after 6 to 9 weeks. Most sockeye fry then rear in lakes where they feed on aquatic insects and "plankton". As the time for migration to the sea approaches for the anadromous forms, the juvenile loses its parr marks, which are a pattern of vertical bars and spots useful for camouflage. They then gain the dark back and light belly coloration used by fish living in open water. During this time their gills and kidneys begin to change so that they can process salt water. These "smolts", as they are called, initially stay close to the shore and feed on insects and plankton. Once they move offshore, their diet turns mainly to "amphipods", "copepods", squid, and some fishes. Most sockeye salmon stay at sea for two years, returning to spawn in their fourth year, but some may be five or six years old when they spawn. There are some sockeye that are non-anadromous, meaning that they spend their entire lives in freshwater. Non-anadromous Oncorhynchus nerka in the Pacific Northwest are known as "kokanee." Occasionally, a proportion of the juveniles in an anadromous sockeye salmon population will remain in their rearing lake environment throughout life and will be observed on the spawning grounds together with their anadromous siblings. Taxonomically, the kokanee and sockeye salmon do not differ. sockeye salmon critical habitat Sockeye Salmon Critical Habitat (click for larger view PDF) Habitat Sockeye spend approximately the first half of their life cycle rearing in lakes. The remainder of the life cycle is spent foraging in estuarine and marine waters of the Pacific Ocean. Critical habitat was designated for the Snake River ESU on December 28, 1993 and for the Ozette Lake ESU on September 2, 2005. Distribution On the Pacific coast, sockeye salmon inhabit riverine, marine, and lake environments from the Klamath River and its tributaries north and west to the Kuskokwim River in western Alaska. As they generally require lakes for part of their life cycle, their distribution in river systems depends on the presence of usable lakes in the system, and thus can be more intermittent than for other Pacific salmon. On the Asian side of the Pacific Ocean, sockeye salmon are also found from the Anadyr River in Siberia south to Hokkaido, Japan. Population Trends They are the third most abundant of the seven species of Pacific salmon, after pink salmon and chum salmon. However, the Snake River ESU has remained at very low levels of only a few hundred fish, though there have been recent increases in the number of hatchery reared fish returning to spawn. Data quality for the Ozette Lake ESU makes differentiating between the number of hatchery and natural spawners difficult, but in either case the size of the population is small, though possibly growing. The status review [pdf] [6.3 MB] provides more detailed information. Threats Salmonid species on the west coast of the United States have experienced dramatic declines in abundance during the past several decades as a result of human-induced and natural factors.

 | Glacier and lake near Portage, Alaska It's a chilly October day in Alaska. There is steam rising from the lake, but there are still some bright red salmon the size of a muscular arm swimming in the lake. Notice the shadows in the lake water; that's the salmon. The sound you hear is the melting of the glacier ice and the resulting waterfall. Look closely at the bright blue ice of the glacier. |
