Well, we've decided to call it a day for another year!  The last few days have had almost no fish come up the ladders.  We thought that maybe the warmer weather would bring a resurgence, but it didn't happen.  We've had another tremendously successful year.  We're almost as surprised this year as we were last year.  We were not expecting this huge amount of fish to pass through, so we were pleasantly surprised! 

We sincerely want to thank everyone who helped again this year to document the passage of the fish.  We can't do this without your help, so we are truly grateful.  It doesn't matter if you counted once a day, once a week, or once during the entire run; every count mattered! We know that it's not always a pleasant experience, with the weather and the swans not always cooperating.  But at least the swans had a happy ending!!!

So, until next year - Have a happy summer.

And we will be posting all of the counting results here for everyone to see, so keep an eye on the lookout!!
