@FelixJBerrios Happy Pride Month! I'm Germรกn (they/them), a wetland geographer who loves all things California wetlands! Outside of research, I love watercolor painting, nature photography, and language learning (trilingual already!) Fun Fact: I've eaten at the oldest functioning pizzeria

The Shasta people traditionally said "the people are coming" upon the return of the salmon. Two days agoโOctober 3rdโthe first Chinook salmon in 60 years was recorded by camera passing the former location of Iron Gate Dam. The salmon are returning, and we welcome them home.
