Beauty and the Feast: When Herring Come to Spawn

Every spring, nature puts on a breathtaking display on the British Columbia coast. The waters turn milky white as millions of male herring release sperm, while the female fish lay billions of pinheadsized eggs. Both the eggs and the fish themselves are a critical postwinter food source for animals from bears to bald eagles, whales to wolves, and herons to humans.
