Incommapleux expedition filled with ‘exhilaration and levitation’

Black Press I met half the group while they enjoyed a post-expedition dinner at the Village Idiot “Exhilaration and levitation.” That was how Carl Jacks described the in Revelstoke on Sunday night. I sat down sensation of completing a first ever descent of with Jacks, Randy Speers, Sam Butler and Sven Perschmann as they enjoyed some the Incommapleux River last week. Jacks made the trip with seven other kay- beers and a greasy meal of poutine and pizza. akers and a hiker, Steve Ogle, who was there The other four members of the group – Revto document the expedition. The trip brought elstoke’s Sean Bozkewycz, Christian Foster them through vast forests of Glacier National and Sam Ewing; and Stephan Paetsch – had Park, across many alder-filled avalanche just missed the ferry and didn’t make it to the paths and, finally, down the fast-moving and restaurant while I was there. Jacks and Speers took the lead in talking overflowing Incommapleux River. The crew, which included three Revelsto- about the trip – the excitement and thrill of kians, set off on Tuesday, Sept. 3. The trip having completed a true wilderness advenstarted with 2.5 days of hiking through Gla- ture greatly evident.

“It was a world class adventure trip,” said Speers. The aim of the trip was not only to paddle the river, but also to document the remote upper Incomappleux valley to help the Valhalla Wilderness Society in its mission to protect the river as a park. They talked about the slog over Flat Creek Pass, the painful bushwhacking through devil’s club, the unexpectedly high water on the river, the majestic old-growth cedars the abundant huckleberries and the grizzly bears they saw. First was the hike with 100 pounds of gear, in the rain, through 13 kilometres on a little travelled and sometimes-disappearing trail in Glacier National Park. They left from just inside the park’s western boundary, with their kayaks and everything else on their backs, and their paddles in their hands. It took them through classic Interior hemlock forest, up through the pass, past the Fortitude warden’s cabin, and down the steep slopes along Slick Creek. “The hike was awesome. So many huckleberries and blueberries. I saw two Grizzlies,” he said, adding: “It was one of the most physically demanding things I’ve ever done. “You can use my word, ‘Funishment.’” Jacks seconded him on behalf of the rest of the group. “The trail was a Godsend but at the same time I think everyone agreed it’s the most difficult thing they’ve ever done as far as long days and hour after hour of just grind-

ing through.” It took 2.5 days to reach the river. Perschmann called the feeling of reaching the river “euphoric.” “There was a locked-in feeling that once we got down to the river, there was no way we were getting out but the river,” added Jacks. “We were faced with a complete unknown, and it was raining even more, which changed it.” The crew had seen aerial photos of the river taken 10 years ago, but the river had changed. Avalanche paths flowed from the glaciercapped peaks right into the river. Landslides they believe were caused by the June floods had sent big debris flows into the river, altering its course. As well, the water level in the river was higher than expected, the result of constant rain throughout the week. The river came up two feet one night, they said. “It resulted in some of the most ridiculous portages we have ever done,” said Jacks. Going through the water was fast, but when they were forced onto land, they moved at snail’s pace, crawling with their boats through alder and devil’s club-filled slide paths. They spoke of the many blisters and cuts they received. “Everyone’s got devil’s club in every part of their body right now,” said Jacks, showing me his red hands. “You can’t see them but you can sure feel them.”

New federal ridings don’t reflect majority opinion Black Press

The people spoke and the federal government didn’t listen. An overwhelming majority of people in the West Kootenay region asked to not be divided politically when the Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission toured through last October and proposed changes to the political boundaries. Through a series of town hall meetings, West Kootenay people asked the commission to respect geographical challenges—keeping together communities nestled in the same mountain valleys—and not separate neighbouring places like Castlegar and Nelson, grouping

them with far off, larger centres of Penticton and Cranbrook, respectively. But the commission did not heed the request and elected to group Rossland and the communities of Trail, Castlegar and Grand Forks, and most of the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary, in with Penticton and parts of the Okanagan. The Golden City will become part of the South Okanagan-West Kootenay riding, with the total population of Rossland and its far flung and fellow Kootenay and Boundary places not even equal to the population of Penticton alone at over 32,000 (2006 Census). What’s more confusing is the

nearby West Kootenay communities of Nelson, Salmo, Kaslo and Creston will be looking east to Cranbrook as they now join the Kootenay Columbia riding. B.C. Southern Interior member of Parliament—that used to represent the entire West Kootenay and Boundary region—Alex Atamanenko, was saddened by the severing of ties, and the lack of compassion by the commission for geographical ties. “I’m disappointed because when we had the public hearing process an overwhelming majority of people basically said they don’t want our communities to split up,” he told Black Press.

The commission reviewed electoral boundaries across Canada and has redrawn them to account for movement and growth in population. As a result, the commission for British Columbia has introduced six new districts. The intent of the commission was to redraw boundaries to keep all electoral districts around the 105,000 population quota. The South Okanagan-West Kootenay will have approximately 113,000 people, more than the under 100,000 it contained as the Southern Interior. The Kootenay Columbia district will increase to about 108,000 people. The South Okanagan-West Koo-

tenay riding will consist of: • Regional District of Kootenay Boundary; • Castlegar; • the villages of New Denver, Silverton, Slocan and Nakusp; • Regional District of Central Kootenay subdivisions H, I and J and part of K; • parts of the Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen comprised of: • Penticton; • Oliver and Osoyoos; • Regional District of Okanagan Similkameen subdivisions A, C, D and E and parts of F; • Penticton Indian Reserve No. 1 and Osoyoos Indian Reserve No. 1.

Thefts, shoplifters, and drunk drivers occupy RCMP Even with new staff in the Nakusp detachment, the RCMP have had a busy week chasing after stolen license plates, impaired drivers and newly notorious shoplifters during the final days of August. Claire paradis Arrow Lakes News

The week of Aug. 25 to Sept. 1 was a busy one for the Nakusp RCMP. The detachment received 38 calls for service during the seven day period, said Corporal Ryan Fehler. “Break and enters and thefts are continuing in the area and police are urging residents to be vigilant in locking up items of value, ensuring vehicles are secured, and keeping an eye out for suspicious people and vehicles,” said Fehler in a media release. Two more thefts of licence plates were reported to police, one at the Halcyon Resort and one in Burton. “Lots of times they’re used on unlicensed vehicles,” Fehler said about stole plates.

Young pair go on shoplifting spree Just after noon on Aug. 29 police received a series of shoplifting complaints from local business owners on Broadway Street in Nakusp. Store owners and a witness provided descriptions of a male and female suspected of stealing from different businesses. Although police subsequently arrived and patrols were made, the suspects were not located. Later that same day, police were told that the same suspects had returned to one of the stores that had been robbed. The store owner was able to stop the suspects and keep them onsite until police arrived. One of the brazen youth had re-entered the store wearing merchandise stolen from the same store only hours earlier. The pair, a 15-yearold male and a 16-year-old female, were arrested taken into custody. Police continued their investigation and deter-

back of their things,” Fehler told the Arrow Lakes News. Police keep serial numbers in database that can be matched with recovered goods. But for the most part, it’s difficult to track stolen household goods. Some items could make their way to a pawn shop in a bigger centre, but for the most part they’re hard to find once they’re gone. Anyone who may have information regarding the above mentioned incidents is asked to please contact the Nakusp RCMP or Crimestoppers.

to appear in Vernon Provincial Court on Sept. 3. Police have recommended charges of Driving While Disqualified and Obstructing a Police Officer. Further charges may be recommended in regards to the truck being taken without the consent of the owner.

a Slocan Lake RCMP member pulled over a vehicle observed driving irregularly on Hwy 6 between New Denver and Silverton. When the officer conducted a check for driver sobriety, it was determined that the driver displayed symptoms of intoxication. A breathalyzer test was given which resulted in a “FAIL” reading. The driver, a 71-year-old Silverton resident, was issued an Immediate Roadside Prohibition prohibiting him from driving for 90 days. When the driver was advised that his vehicle was going to be impounded for 30 days he became confrontational with the officer and had to be placed under arrest. The driver resisted arrest and the officer had to use physical force to gain control of the male. Both the officer and the driver sustained minor injuries. After both the officer and the driver were checked by medical staff, the driver was released and is scheduled to appear for a first appearance in Nakusp Provincial Court on Oct. 31.

mined that they had stolen from at least three local businesses, mostly items of clothing. The two were also found to have stolen miscellany like flashlights and fishing gear from at least three vehicles during the previous night. As a result, police were able to recover a significant quantity of stolen property valued in excess of $500. The two young people were found to be residents of Vernon and came to Nakusp to visit a family member the day prior. Both suspects were released to a guardian with requirements to attend Court in Nakusp at a later date. Police will be recommending multiple charges of Theft and Possession of Stolen Property against both individuals.

On the watch for zebra mussels Contributed by CKIPC

Zebra mussels, an invasive aquatic species, have devastating impacts where they are introduced. They can ruin fishing and recreational opportunities, alter aquatic habitat for plants and animals, and block water intake structures for hydro power. Since the initial discovery of zebra mussels in the Great Lakes in the 1980s, this species has now spread to more than 20 states and two provinces in eastern North America, causing billions of dollars in damage along the way. According to Fisheries and Oceans Canada, the threat of these mussels arriving and establishing in the Columbia Basin is high. “We are extremely concerned about zebra mussels arriving in our waters,” said Sheila Street of FortisBC who sits as Chair on the Central Kootenay Invasive Plant Committee’s (CKIPC) Aquatic Invasive Species Working Group. “Not only can these mussel infestations devastate the ecology of our river and lake systems, they can block water intake structures in hydroelectric plants, causing millions of dollars in damages and increase operating costs.” Once mature, a female zebra mussel can produce up to one million eggs per year which hatch into swimming larvae called “veligers.” Since these larvae are microscopic, they can be transported on boats and equipment from one body of water to another. Adult mussels can live out of water, in moist conditions, for two weeks. “They could arrive to our waters

any day,” said Crystal Klym, Executive Director of the CKIPC. “It just takes one zebra or quagga mussel contaminated boat or wet bucket to launch into our rivers.” In 2012, quagga mussels, a close relative of zebra mussels, were found on a boat that was launched into Shuswap Lake, but luckily the mussels were dead. Because of this risk the CKIPC Aquatic Invasive Species Working Group recently completed a two-year monitoring project to determine whether or not larvae of zebra and quagga mussels were already present in the Canadian Columbia Basin. With funding from the Environment Canada Damages Fund, and partnerships with the Province of BC, Slocan Lake Stewardship Society, FortisBC and Teck Metals Ltd., this project monitored for zebra larvae at nine locations including sites in the Arrow Lakes, Kootenay Lake, Slocan Lake, Pend D’Oreille River and Columbia River (near Trail). “This was a great project to train local volunteers how to detect for mussels early, and to educate water users on this threat.” said Street. “Fortunately, no mussel larvae were detected.” “Prevention is key,” continued Klym. “We encourage boaters and other aquatic recreationists to clean, drain and dry their boat and equipment when they move between water bodies to prevent the spread of aquatic invaders like these invasive mussels.” For more information, contact CKIPC at 250-352-1160 or see www. ckipc.ca.

Is geoengineering a silver bullet for climate change? David Suzuki Science Matters Altering environments to suit our needs is not new. From clearing land to building dams, we’ve done it throughout history. When our technologies and populations were limited, our actions affected small areas – though with some cascading effects on interconnected ecosystems. We’ve now entered an era in which humans are a geological force. According to the website Welcome to the Anthropocene, “There are now so many of us, using so many resources, that we’re disrupting the grand cycles of biology, chemistry and geology by which elements like carbon and nitrogen circulate between land, sea and atmosphere. We’re changing the way water moves around the globe as never before. Almost all the planet’s ecosystems bear the marks of our presence.” One of our greatest impacts is global warming, fuelled by massive increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide from burning oil, coal and gas. Thanks in part to self-preserving industrialists, complicit governments and deluded deniers, we’ve failed to take meaningful action to address the problem, even though we’ve known about it for decades. Many now argue the best way to protect humanity from the worst effects is to further alter Earth’s natural systems through geoengineering. Geoengineering to combat climate change is largely untested. Because we’ve stalled so long on reducing carbon emissions and still aren’t doing enough, we may have to consider it. What will that mean? As it relates to climate change,

geoengineering falls into two categories: solar radiation management and carbon dioxide removal. The former involves reflecting solar radiation back into space. The latter is aimed at removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and storing it. Solar radiation management includes schemes such as releasing sulphur aerosols into the atmosphere to scatter sunlight and reduce radiation, creating or whitening clouds by spraying seawater or other materials into the air, and even installing giant reflectors in space. These methods don’t affect CO2 levels and so don’t address issues like ocean acidification, but they offer possible quick fixes to reduce warming. An example of carbon removal is fertilizing oceans with iron. Iron stimulates growth of small algae called phytoplankton, which remove carbon dioxide from the sea and release oxygen through photosynthesis. This allows the oceans to absorb additional CO2 from the atmosphere. When the plankton die and sink to the ocean floor, they become buried under other materials, storing the carbon within them. The Alberta and federal governments have spent billions on their favoured carbon-reduction method, carbon capture and storage – trapping CO2 released by burning fossil fuels and pumping it into the ground – but this method has yet to be perfected. Many schemes are controversial and have shown mixed results in tests, and the danger of unintended consequences is real, including further catastrophic, irreversible damage to the climate system. One major drawback with geoengineering is the mistaken idea

that it can be a substitute for reducing greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change. That many geoengineering projects are fraught with danger and would not resolve the problem quickly enough or even effectively – and would do little or nothing to resolve other fossil fuel problems such as pollution – makes this a critical concern. There’s also the matter of who would decide what methods to apply and when and where. The issue of “rogue” geoengineering has also cropped up in my part of the world, when an American businessman working with the Haida village of Old Massett dumped 100 tonnes of iron sulphate into the ocean in 2012 for a salmon restoration and carbonreduction project. A U.K. Royal Society study concludes that geoengineering “should only be considered as part of a wider package of options for addressing climate change” and carbon dioxide reduction methods should be preferred over more unpredictable solar radiation management. Scientists at the Berlin Social Science Research Centre suggest creating “a new international climate engineering agency … to coordinate countries’ efforts and manage research funding.” Because some geoengineering is likely unavoidable, that’s a good idea. But rather than rationalizing our continued use of fossil fuels in the false belief that technology will enable us to carry on with our destructive ways, we really need governments, scientists and industry to start taking climate change and greenhouse gas emissions seriously. We can’t just engineer our way out of the problem.

ICBC and RCMP target distracted driving Black Press

Police and ICBC are launching a month-long campaign to deter distracted driving, the third leading cause of fatal car crashes in the province after speed and impaired driving. Driver distraction is blamed as a factor in 91 fatalities province-wide each year. Transportation ministry officials estimate drivers are four times likelier to crash when talking on a hand-held phone while driving and

23 times more likely to be in a crash if texting. Enforcement by officers handing out $167 fines will be stepped up throughout September, according to police. Officials kicked off the campaign Thursday using a simulator to show the effect of distractions on a driver. “Driving is a complex task that requires your full attention,” ICBC interim president Mark Blucher said. “When you’re distracted behind the

wheel your reaction time is significantly reduced. Distracted driving is a common cause of rearend crashes and injuries – there is no safe following distance when your mind is not on the road.” A 2012 survey for ICBC found B.C. motorists consider texting while driving to be just as risky as drinking and driving, yet 40 per

cent of those who own cellphones admit they’ve used a hand-held phone while driving. ICBC says its statistics count use of communications or video equipment among the sources of driver distraction, along with driver inattention and other sources of internal or external distraction.

ICBC injury payouts reached $1.9 billion in 2012, up $165 million from the previous year and a $400 million increase over five years. The Crown corporation cited that increase as the main reason for its application to raise premiums 4.9 per cent, effective Nov. 1.

Mud slides affecting turbidity of Slocan waterways Black Press

Mud slides, affecting Gwillim and Mulvey creeks, are to blame for high sedimentation and discoloration seen in those waterways and the Slocan River following a heavy rainfall. The Regional District of Central Kootenay is requesting users conserve water in the coming days. The RDCK said in a release they have investigated reports of the extremely high sedimentation and discoloration and assessed the area by helicopter on Saturday, Sept. 7. The slides have not blocked the creeks and water is currently flowing freely through the slide areas. There are no threats to infrastructure or pub-

lic safety as a result of the slides. However, it may take a number of days for the sedimentation to diminish and users on the Slocan community water system are requested to conserve water during this time, even after the water has cleared. Residents who draw their water from the Slocan River should also be aware of the increased turbidity levels. Residents are asked to be observant for discoloration and/or extreme fluctuations in water levels during and after significant such rain events, as these can be indicators of potentially dangerous slides or debris flows on rivers and streams.

The ghost town of Camborne in the northern Lardeau was originally known as Fish Creek Camp, but renamed by mining recorder and engineer John Cory Menhinick (1865-1953), who pre-empted the townsite at

the confluence of Fish and Pool creeks. Menhinick reputedly named it after the mining school he attended in his birthplace of Cornwall, England. Founded in 1888, it still exists as part of the University of Exeter. Camborne, which means crooked hill in Cornish, is often misspelled Cambourne and Menhinick’s name is sometime given as Menhenick. The earliest reference was in the Revelstoke Herald of January 20, 1900 in speaking of the Beatrice mine: “A rawhide trail has been built and today the mine is shipping high grade over the government waggon road from Camborne to Arrow lake, seven miles distant ...” The townsite was laid out the following year. Camborne enjoyed a couple of brief hey-

days connected to mining in the area. The post office opened May 1, 1902, closed September 30, 1914, re-opened August 16, 1935 and closed again December 31, 1936. Today the townsite is deserted. By the 1920s, Menhinick moved to Salt Spring Island. CARIBOO CITY This townsite, also known as Caribou City, was close to Burton on Upper Arrow Lake, and was founded in response to a brief mining rush. It was first mentioned in the Victoria Daily Colonist of June 6, 1897: “Townsites in Cariboo Creek district are ... beginning to boom. Mineral City and Cariboo City have been put on the market lately and lots in both are meeting with ready sale in Rossland.” Twelve days later, the first in a series of ads in the Spokane

Paddlers may be back – in a few years

Spokesman Review placed on behalf of the Cariboo City Land Company declared Cariboo City “the coming metropolis of British Columbia” and “destined to be the big city of the Arrow Lake country.” Alas, it never happened. The last reference to Cariboo City appeared in the Kootenay Mail in 1903.

Business Opportunity BURTON HISTORIC PARK & CAMPGROUND Sam Butler and Sven Perschmann are two of the paddlers who made their way down the Incommapleux. Photo courtesy Randy Speers

Kayak from page 1 On ground they could witness the majesty of the forest they were in. Some of the portages took took them past ancient cedars that were several hundred feet tall and more than 10 feet wide. “It’s like you’ve been shrunken down to half your size,” said Jacks. “You’re in the biggest forest you’ve seen, but now it’s double that.” Speers said one of his best memories was walking through a grove of cedars all more than three metres wide. “It’s probably 2,000 years old.” The landscape was wet and mossy. They could walk around

barefoot while camping, the ground was so soft. One of the main features of the river – a kilometre-long box canyon – proved too risky to kayak. A big waterfall barred the entrance, and, even if they could get in, the high walls and lack of exits meant it was took risky. They walked around. Half the group paddled the lower section, but they all walked around the top half. Eventually they made it through the first 17-kilometres of unroaded wilderness to the confluence of the Incomappleux with Battle Brook, into areas some had paddled before. From there, it was down to the Upper Arrow Lake at Beaton where their trucks and a few cases of beer were

awaiting. They reached the end Sunday afternoon. Three of them had celebrated their birthdays on the route. “The sun came out as we piled our kayaks on the beach and took a photo of everyone, and then lots of hooting and hollering,” said Jacks. They were already talking about going back, but not for a few years – and when the water is lower. There’s a number of sections they didn’t run, leaving portions of the river untapped. “Will it happen again? Hard to say,” said Jacks. “I think we all agreed we’d do it again, but not in a year or two.”

Burton City Daze play in late summer this year

Burton Daze took place on Sept. 6 and 7 this year, with good weather for the triathlon. Claire Paradis/Arrow Lakes News Claire paradis Arrow Lakes News

This year, Burton held its dazzling Daze at the end of summer on Sept. 6 and 7, perhaps put off by the heavy rains that came last June. Missing and missed this year was the La Di Da parade, a crowd favourite, but the canoe-bike-run triathlon was once again a full mix of pathos (for those who stayed up late the night before), slapstick, and all around fun. Although there was no clowning around this year, there were a couple of traffic snags, one camper in particular got caught on the course start/finish flags, but generally the racers made their way in winning form. The Smokers were back again, and there was as much speculation this year as last that the team name was a smoke screen for a bunch of young non-smokers lulling the competition into a false sense of security with their anti-athletic moniker. Launching themselves out of the water first from the frenetic zig zag of

canoes to the marker boat and back, the Smokers lei’d the way for a good lead, giving their biker a multiple minute head start. The Gorbys, the Rocket Surgeons, Clark Drive and Ross Co. tagged and tailed just behind the Smokers, with some lapping occurring during the running component of the race. The Smokers burned in with a time of 41:30, the Rocket Surgeons sewed it up in 44:30, the Gorbys proclaimed ‘Perestroika’ at 47:40, Clark Drive made it home at 48:20, and one-man triathlon Ross Co. and his encouraging entourage crossed the finish line at 56:40. Fastest time was awarded to the Smokers, Rocket Surgeons garnered the “oldest team” award with their combined age of 213 (and looking good). Youngest team, at 70 years, was the Clark Drivers, and one-man wonder Alan Ross’s Ross Co. received props for his tenacious athleticism. The Gorbys and Clark Drive also had team members competing in two of three legs of the Burton triathlon, which received honourable murmurs

from the crowd gathered at the Burton gazebo. The next race was up to the Farmers’ Market, Harvest Lunch and Fall Fair being held at the Burton Community Hall, and the vineyard tours being held by the Arrow Lakes Grape Growers Society. The ALGGS were out standing in their field, the test plot in Burton, giving tours to interested folks. Society members Jerry Botti and Joel Henschke walked visitors through the field and its little pink drink boxes filled with vine varietals explaining the experimental program. The last farmers’ market of the year was busy despite the unpredictable weather, and the lunch was as popular as ever with a half-dozen soups, chili, sandwiches, and of course delectable desserts. Music, coffee, and lots of visiting were the order of the day, and just the beginning of the rest of the Daze. The horseshoe tournament continued that afternoon, and the beer gardens were preparing for a hopping evening. Long live Burton City!

The Hills Garlic Festival was stuffed with garlic, and so much more. All Photos Claire Paradis/Arrow Lakes News

Interesting head gear for those brave enough to take on a dragon.

Food was a huge draw, and these spinach, strawberry and brie crepes - with garlic of course - were a hit.

Birds have their reasons to migrate south during winter too

Gary Davidson Birds of Nakusp A few years ago I wrote a series of four articles dealing with bird migration. It is a fascinating topic and I am going to run them again over the next few weeks. I have revised the articles to incorporate new information which is constantly being gained as a result of ongoing research. Why do birds migrate instead of remaining in one suitably warm place all year long? Some scientists believe, that prior to the last ice age, when the northern hemisphere was much warmer than it is today, that many birds did not migrate at all. There was suitable habitat and climate even in parts of northern Canada. Obviously, things changed drasti-

cally when much of North America became covered in a massive sheet of ice! The species that had previously lived in Canada, for example, would have been forced to move south. This was not a short stay since the ice covered the land for over three hundred thousand years, with a few relatively brief inter-glacial periods. When the ice retreated, ten to twelve thousand years ago, new territory became available. Pioneering species moved out into this new land and adapted to its conditions. Some adapted so well that they were able to live in cold northern climates year round, species like chickadees, nuthatches and ravens, for example. Others found that the northern habitat was suitable in the summer months but not in winter, so they established a routine of moving back and forth with the changing seasons. Generally, it is food supply, not temperatures that determines these birds’ movements. Some food items, evergreen cones for example, are available year round. Hence, birds that rely on such items do not need to migrate. There is another reason that may explain why some birds migrate,

Like many Canadians, Tree Swallows also head south for the winter, finding more food for their insect-based diet. Photo courtesy Gary Davidson that has nothing to do with glaciers. A swallow’s diet consists entirely of flying insects. Such food is available year round in the tropics, so why not just stay there all the time? Why the hazardous trip thousands of kilometres twice a year? The answer may lie with a

problem that is also facing the human species: over-crowding. As bird populations increased, the tropical regions could no longer feed all the birds, particularly during the breeding season when populations are swelled by the introduction of millions of young birds. So during the

breeding season they spread out to take advantage of the seasonal abundance of food at the northern latitudes. But before this temporary food supply dries up in the winter, the adults, and their newly hatched young, must return south, where food is still available.
