The pic above is of some little fish in Kali Biru (Blue river) in the Mayalibit Bay watershed.  The river looks blue apparently from all the copper in the rocks of the stream bed.  It's apparently too cold and fast-moving for crocs, so makes a great freshwater snorkel spot.  I don't know what kind of little suckers these fish are, clinging to the rocks.  It's been over a year since my last trip to Kali Biru and I wonder how these little fish are doing.  In the meantime, it's time to shift weekend attention to snorkel spots close by, like the Truckee River.  Lots of fish in there too, including these endangered Sacramento suckers.  They may not be as colorful as the little minnow-sized fish in Kali Biru, but they're still a wonderful sight.

More fun from Kali Biru- little shrimp looking for algae on one of Amy Tan's hands.
