A frenzy of fish captured people鈥檚 attention on White Rock鈥檚 waterfront Christmas Day 鈥� and much later into the evening.
The small swimmers 鈥� either Pacific herring or anchovy 鈥� have drawn dozens of seals and sea lions to Semiahmoo Bay in recent weeks, to dine on the shimmery creatures.
But while daytime photos and video submitted to Peace Arch 亚洲天堂 from Christmas Day show a flurry of activity as the fish circled and writhed through the waters, photos from around midnight depict a stark contrast; all of dead fish.
鈥淢illions of fish on the White Rock beach at midnight at low tide last night,鈥� writes Su Gu in a morning email to PAN Dec. 26.
鈥淣ever seen anything like this here.鈥�
PAN has asked Fisheries and Oceans Canada for more information on the phenomenon.
