interpret its various Maya Lin installations at the state park. There will be interpretive volunteers at the shuttle site, the cedar grove, the ConÀuence Boardwalk and the Fish Cleaning Table within the park. North Head Lighthouse is undergoing restoration and is closed for tours, but an easy walk leads to the lighthouse and stunning views of the Paci¿c Ocean and the coast. This is the kick off day for the North Head Lighthouse rafÀe, which will

directly bene¿t lighthouse restoration. The pri]e for the rafÀe is a two-night stay at a keeper’s residence for six, plus dinner for six at the Depot Restaurant during the stay, which must be between October 2016 and March 2017. Phase 1 of the lighthouse’s restoration was completed in spring 2015. It replaced and restored damaged metal work throughout the lighthouse and painted its red roof black, the same color it would have been over a century before when it was operated by the Lighthouse Keepers. Phase 2 work is focusing on infrastructure improvements: stucco repair, brick masonry repairs, revised electrical system design and more. Washington State Parks is also applying for a $385,320 grant to improve access to the lighthouse for people with disabilities.

to lay anchor at Port of Ilwaco

ILWACO, Wash. — The tall ships Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain will call on the Port of Ilwaco June 2 to 6 and offer excursions and tours to the general public. Ilwaco is the final stop on the ships’ 201516 academic year tour of California, Oregon and Washington coastal ports. Lady Washington visited Ilwaco last May, but has in other recent years avoided the port due to issues with water depth. The wooden-hulled, engine-powered Lady Washington has appeared in several movies and TV shows, including “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl,” and “Star Trek: Generations.” The steel-hulled Hawaiian Chieftain specializes in hands-on educational programs for young people. New for the Ilwaco visit

Sedona Fire Band

ƥ8ǛǕ6 with creative energy

By DAN HAAG

The annals of rock ’n’ roll history are crammed with legendary artists who experimented with different musical styles. Led Zeppelin layered their hard rock with the blues; The Police dabbled in reggae; Paul Simon took on zydeco; Blondie recorded a rap song. No matter the outcome, the idea was to stretch and grow as artists. “I don’t know where I’m going from here,” the late David Bowie declared. “But I promise it won’t be boring.” That might as well be the mantra of Sedona Fire Band, a diversely talented ensemble hailing from the Nehalem Valley area. Playing an eclectic blend of genre-crossing music they’ve dubbed world folk fusion, this seven-piece out¿t isn’t afraid to challenge themselves — as evidenced by the levels of instrumentation band members bring to each gig: Sedona Torres on vocals and Àute, 0ichael Dinan on guitar and vocals, Bob La Torre on cornet, Renee DeLight on cello, Barbara 0cLaughlin on bass and percussion, Chuck 0cLaughlin on percussion, and Enya Torres-Ling on percussion. According to Torres, world folk fusion is an eclectic combination of world, folk, rock and blues. “We’re very eclectic,” she says. “We’ve done a lot of diverse stuff because all of us have had different experiences with different music.” *rowing up in the 0idwest, Torres quickly became a fan of

folk acts like Peter, Paul and 0ary. She also found inspiration in her mother’s huge record collection. “Local DJs used to call her if they needed music,” she says. Torres and Dinan originally formed the group as a duo in and recorded their ¿rst album, “The Spark,” in 2011. The band gradually grew from there, releasing “Pages of the 0ind” as the larger unit in 201 . The group is currently laying down tracks for a third album, “Into The River.” With more band members, Se-

dona Fire was able to delve into deeper, richer sounds, especially with percussion. The 0cLaughlins, who had been involved in the local out¿t The Tsunami Drummers, lent Sedona Fire a different beat when they came aboard in 2013. “I’ve always liked the sound of hand drums,” Torres says. “They capture that world essence.” Torres recalls a gig where the hand drums gave a familiar folk song a new feel. “We were covering ‘Leaving on a Jet Plane’ and the percussion gave it kind of an island beat,” she says. “We all really liked it and said, ‘Let’s keep it that way.’” Torres enjoys the tighter harmonies of folk music and the

genre’s ability to convey a narrative with rich tones, rather than just having a danceable beat. “It’s about expanding the experience of the music where you can really ¿ll in and not just have a bunch of instruments make noise,” she says, adding that the band rehearses at least once a week. Sedona Fire has gigged all over Oregon, including shows in Bend and at the Lan Su Chinese Garden in Portland. This summer will keep them busy as well, with several shows lined up, including performances at the 0anzanita Farmers 0arket in July and the Astoria Sunday 0arket in September. The show closest on the horizon is a special performance from

2 to p.m. Sunday, June at the newly renovated NCRD Performing Arts Center in Nehalem, where the band will debut new material. The gig will include guest musicians Carl 0cLaughlin, son of percussionist Chuck 0cLaughlin, and John Ling and his12-year-old Enya Torres-Ling, the newest and youngest member of Sedona Fire. These family members will be playing together for the ¿rst time on stage. While the show promises to be a big undertaking for the closeknit group, Torres isn’t nervous about expanding the band’s already large roster for one night. “It’s worth it because we’ve grown as a band and a family,” she says. “The show honors what Sedona Fire is about: being inclusive and making a connection with the audience without any separation.” To learn more about Sedona Fire and hear some of their music, visit www.sedonafiremusic.com

The parade line up will be on Necanicum Drive, and all entrants must be in line and ready to go by 10:45 a.m. Since the July 4 is on a Monday, large crowds are expected, resulting in traffic delays. Arriving early is strongly suggested. Those entrants not at their assigned position will be put at the end of the parade as space allows. Entries must be able to negotiate turns onto and off Broadway. Floats cannot be over 40 feet in length, towing vehicle and float combined, and no more than 8 feet wide. If a float or vehicle distributes “goodies,” it must be done by someone walking alongside. No goodies or candy can be thrown from the float or vehicle. The parade starts at 11 a.m. From Necanicum it will turn east on 12th Avenue, then south on Holladay Drive to Broadway, west to Columbia, east to First Avenue back to Necanicum. The parade takes place rain or shine. Emails with additional parade information and assigned position will be sent out to registered entrants July 1 and 2.

SEASIDE — The Seaside First Saturday Art Walk, celebrating 12 years in 2016, is all about the arts. Visitors walk about, meet artists, sip wine or snag appetizers, view artist demonstrations, listen to an artist talk or enjoy live performances in music. The next art walk is from 5 to 7 p.m. Saturday, June 4 at galleries located in the historic Gilbert District of downtown Seaside. SunRose Gallery 606 Broadway SunRose will host an open house featuring new work from pique assiette artist Kathleen Jones, credit card mosaic artist Mari Cardinal Walker, sand dollar mosaic artist Mimi Cernyar Fox, and mixed-media artist Patty Thurlby, who will be in attendance. Local musician Richard Thomasian will provide live jazz music. Gilbert District Gallery 613 Broadway The gallery, a co-op shared by artists from Washington and Oregon, is celebrating12 years and features watercolors, bronze sculptures, giclee prints, Native American jewelry, oil paintings, greeting cards, nature designs and gifts. Artists include Mike Sage, photographer Steve Bash and more. Gallery co-owner Dave Bartholet is represented by over 200 galleries across America. Beach Books 616 Broadway Beach Books features work from the Green Cab Artist Collective, a working artist group in the Portland area created to encourage and inspire one another, share techniques and info about the business side of art, and share work with the public. The Cabbies are a synergistic alliance of artists, working in diverse mediums. Participating artists for June are Annie Brown, Barbara Martin, Elina Zeberg, Jim Zaleski and Jeffery Hall. Brown paints on wooden panels. Martin comes from a line of storytellers and is the product of an internationally nomadic life. Zeberg works in a variety of mediums, including acrylics and encaustic painting.

Zaleski combines the traditional art forms of painting and drawing with a computer world to produce art that is loaded with whimsy. Hall will do a sand painting demonstration during art walk. He enjoys using re-purposed materials in his art making process. Fairweather House and Gallery 612 Broadway Fairweather will hold an opening reception for “Works on Paper,” an exhibition that includes established and emerging artists who have created

works using paper as their primary medium. The show highlights nationally known artist Patricia Clark-Finley through the month of June with new works on graphite and sennelier ink on yupo. Clark-Finley, a multi-media artist with an interest in narrative and mythology, studied art and business at University of California, Berkeley, and holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the San Francisco Art Institute. A native of Washington, she has studio space by the beach in Ocean Park. “Paper offers a shorter gap between the concept and the execution of an image,” Clark-Finley says. “It is possible to take an image through several versions in the same studio session ... Artists historically have created piles of drawings and work on paper for each master work produced. Often the drawings offer more insight into the artistic process than the final work.” Other artists will also show work, including Penelope Culbertson, who creates calligraphy quotes on antique paper; Christine Trexel, who plants and harvests the materials to make paper boxes; Gary Pearlman, who embeds individually cut patterns of handmade paper into original art; and Denise McFadden, who often works on dampened paper and mixes color directly onto her painting.

Seaside nature photographer Neal Maine will introduce his latest natural history journal of images and speak at 6 p.m. Adult beverages, wine tasting, light refreshments and artist lectures will be provided. T.anjuli Gallery 7 North Holladay Drive Gallery owner and artist Billy Lutz focuses on what lies beneath appearances in his artwork: Having reemerged into the field of opposites, the irrational landscape, now exposed, is stitched into the physical realm for all to see. From now on, one cannot escape or deny that there is more going on in present tense than just the world spinning and us moving about on its surface. More original art: Seaside Coffee House, 3 N. Holladay Drive; and Seaside Antique Mall, 726 Broadway. Participating restaurants: Guido and Vito’s at 604 Broadway; Three Little Bird’s Bakery at 8 N. Holladay Drive; Tora Sushi at 619 Broadway; Nonni’s Bistro at 831 Broadway; Yellow Curry, 20 N. Holladay Drive. SUBMITTED PHOTOS

The Local LIE

Astoria High School students publish their own literary review By MATT LOVE

The idea of titling the 2015-16 Astoria High School literary review originated from a standup brainstorm VHVVLRQ ZLWK WKH ERRN¶V ¿YH HGLWRUV and their advisor, me. We had spent the better part of three weeks in both sections of my high school Creative Writing class trying to reach consensus on a name, but nothing emerged — until one of the editors threw out the phrase “the local lie.” From there, sophomores Angel Harrison, Trinity Hennessee, Lidija Sovulj, Dylan Hauser-Schalk DQG VHQLRU 7HNOD 'DQLHO VWDUWHG ULI¿QJ on the theme. Within seconds, we had our name, and the editors were off and running. By the time the review went to press, the editors put in a herculean task of reading and evaluating

over 700 submissions of writing and DUW DQG QDUURZLQJ GRZQ WKH ¿QDO contents to 185. ³,W ZDV VWUHVVIXO EXW GH¿QLWHO\ JRW me ready for life after high school. It taught me the importance of deadlines and how to work with other people,” said Daniel. “If there’s one thing AHS students want, it is to be heard,” said Hennessee. “Everyone who is in the review not only has a chance to show off their tremendous talent, but also has a unique voice of their own that gets to be heard.” Every place has its local lies — the received wisdoms and rehearsed ¿FWLRQV WKDW RIWHQ GRPLQDWH WKH history and culture of that place. These local lies can be silly, hilarious, cryptic, moot, expedient or extremely dangerous. They run the gamut of human delusions and deceptions. Some people are comfortable with the lies or completely oblivious to them, but others, typically the youth of that place, recognize them and often rebel. The questions are: Should these lies be confronted, and if so,

by what means? Writers, artists and musicians naturally gravitate toward confronting them with their work. Questioning some of the local lies does take place in this literary review, but that’s hardly the full story. There are wonderful moments of pure bliss, FRQWHPSODWLRQ DQG VKHHU ¿FWLRQDO fantasy in the pages of The Local Lie. To get the whole story of what’s going on in the minds of the writers and artists on campus, I suggest you support the creative youth of Astoria and read the entire book.

In terms of geology, I fashion myself to be a fault line. Fault line is a specific and strange enough title, and one could argue that I chose it for the sake of being unique, but there is logic to it. Fault lines are an overlooked piece of Earth’s makeup. They lay dormant for periods, up to thousands of years, and often begin to fade from recent memory. Then, without warning, a slight trip or heavy pressure build up will cause it to become active, allowing it to cause devastating amounts of damage to much more than just the surrounding area. It’s in this way that I relate. I myself have always had trouble with work ethic. I’ll go long periods avoiding, putting off, or otherwise not completing my responsibilities. Even as I write to compare myself to a fault, I am reluctant to put work into it. However, also like a fault line, my apparent level of activity is not proportional to my capabilities at all. In a short period of time, I can complete a rather impressive amount of tasks of varying difficulty. The stress of the situation pushes me to suddenly put forth a high amount of energy. So as it’s been said, to compare myself to a fault line isn’t completely unreasonable. I may be generally inactive, but I’m always present, always capable, and always a threat.

The book also features an eight-page color art insert ably coordinated by AHS art teacher Mickey Cereghino. Sophomore Claire Albright provided the arresting cover illustration.

All proceeds from book sales will go toward funding next year’s review. I invite everyone with an interest in supporting Astoria High School’s creative writers to attend the launch for the book at Coffee Girl in Pier 39 in Astoria. The date is 6 p.m. Wednesday, June 8. The event will feature readings from the book and musical performances from members of the creative writing classes. Books cost $10. Admission is free but we’ll readily accept donations at the launch to keep the writing and publishing going for next year.

14 // COASTWEEKEND.COM Coast Weekend’s local restaurant review

Astoria restaurant puts the cart before the horse Review and photos by MOUTH OF THE COLUMBIA

In the two years leading up to Life in the Slow Lane’s March opening, ownership had plenty of time to think. They began with a concept: The restaurant would celebrate early th century $mericana ² Àapper dresses, newsboy caps and, above all, burgeoning automobile culture. The centerpiece, a red 1930 Ford Model A Deluxe Roadster, was labored over, meticulously restored. It is described on their website as the “car that started it all.” The Roadster is parked plum in the middle of prime, brand new real estate: the dining room of an expansive, 4,700-square-foot, two-story building on 16th Street and Marine Drive. Tables ring the second Àoor dining room, with views of Marine Drive and the Columbia River. The walls are dotted with other era-evoking ephemera, like vintage boots, hand bags and so on, though the outsized space still feels a bit empty. Staff are dressed accordingly, sporting bold era attire that’s oddly aristocratic for the carnival fare. Otherwise quiet, a TV shows black and white cartoons, Betty Boop and the like. The shrill, warbling voices, plinking pianos and crashing sound effects are surreal and, for dining, somewhat uneasy. Nonetheless, these aesthetic choices would be acceptable, charming even, except that they seem to underscore Life in the Slow Lane’s putting the cart before the horse: The food just doesn’t hold up. On offer are hot dogs and a fried potato — two classics that are needlessly upended. We’ll begin with the dogs. Rather than served in traditional buns, Slow Lane’s “River Dogs” come in hollowed out, lightly toasted Italian rolls. Condiments are squirted inside, then the dog slides in, the tip sticking out like a head from a sleeping bag. At ¿rst glance the approach seems novel.

And with the Italian Dog, an herby Italian sausage with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese, it almost works. (It got soggy quick.) With every other dog, the bread pocket falls totally Àat. The hollowed tube, which leaves just enough space for the dog, doesn’t have near enough room for condiments. Hot dog staples — like onions and sauerkraut — are served on the side. Forget anything teeming or Chicago-style. Heck, forget even a modicum of toppings. You get sauce, and that’s about it. Slow Lane’s Chili and Cheese Dog is the most egregious offender. A proper chili dog should be absolutely smothered, beans and meat in equal portion to the dog, if not overwhelming it and the bun. It should be a big, glorious, gluttonous, meaty, stewy mess. At Slow Lane, it’s as if the dog was merely dipped in the chili and cheese then slid into the roll. In terms of Àavor it is, in all honesty, reminiscent of the 7-Eleven, gas station variety: the rubbery nacho-cheese and watery chili thin enough as to be dispensed from a pump. There was nary a bean in sight (nor onions, for that matter, though I could’ve gotten some on the side...). Believe it or not, the 7-Eleven variation is actually superior to Slow Lane’s in that at least there is no limitation to the condiments that can be piled on. It’s also about half the price. (River Dogs are $5.95, save for the $4.95 Classic Dog.) That premium price isn’t affording a premium dog. They’re thick but bland. Established brands like Nathan’s Famous and Hebrew

LIFE IN THE SLOW LANE Rating: 1619 Marine Drive, Astoria 818-822-6539 HOURS: 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Sunday. PRICE: $ – Before drink, a hot dog and fry will run $10. SERVICE: Warm, friendly, earnest VEGETARIAN / VEGAN OPTIONS: Not recommended. DRINKS: Fountain soda, Italian soda, coffee and tea Above: Nary a bean is in sight with Slow Lane’s Chili and Cheese Dog, which is served with a thin chili and nachocheese-like sauce. Left: The Column Fry is a spiral-cut potato on a long skewer.

National put a licking on whatever is being used here. (The unseasoned, orange, pressed paste that was the vegetarian dog, meanwhile, was an affront to both hot dogs and vegetarian alternatives.) Condiments couldn’t save the day. The Polynesian Dog, with a marble-sized dollop of pineapple on the tip, featured a sweet and sour sauce that smacked of corn syrup. The veggie dog, which I ordered with “everything” came with mustard and a plastic cup of sauerkraut on the side. (Save for a ketchup pump, Slow Lane has no condiment bar.) The Column Fry ($3.95) struggled too. A spiral-cut potato on a long skewer, it split the difference between French fry and chip. Seasoned with a salty dust of your

choice, from “Cheezy Ranch” to “Buffalo Wings,” the texture was off: soft yet dry, lacking a satisfying crunch or hearty center. Despite being served on a stick, the Column Fry necessitated two hands. It wasn’t much fun to eat. It was another decision that had me wondering: Why? In the case of the dog, serving it in a roll rather than a bun, I asked. The answer: Ownership thought the roll would make the dogs cleaner, more portable. But since when was the hot dog ever hard to eat on the go? At least with the gelato and sorbet, Slow Lane has left wellenough alone. With ingredient mixes from Italy whipped together in-house, I found a wide range. The ones including actual ingredients — like the Oregon Berry ($3.95 / small), with blackberries and raspberries, and the Strawberry Guava, with strawberry — were far superior to the absolutely arti¿cial ones, like Apple. All a bit Àuffy, the chocolate was passable,

KEY TO STAR RATING SYSTEM Poor Below average Good & worth return Excellent Best in region

and the salted caramel was buttery. But in the case of iced dessert (and fried potatoes), there’s no reason not to head a few steps down the hill to the marvelous Frite & Scoop, where everything is truly homemade and contains no arti¿cial Àavor. The same goes for Custard King, which delivers drive-thru nostalgia and quality burgers with a modern Àourish. It’s tough, because the hearts at Life in the Slow Lane are in the right place. There is an earnest goodwill and obvious desire to please. The food, however, has been but an afterthought. Developing flavors didn’t receive the same energy and effort as did the restoration of that classic car. The work that was spent on food ended up producing solutions to problems that didn’t exist. It’s not too late to change. But after some two years in the making, Life in the Slow Lane is only half-baked.

Sketch in Astoria on Saturday ASTORIA — In 2013, Northwest artists Ron Stocke and Derek Gundy decided they wanted to collaborate on a special art educational project. The next year they created Sketch Seattle. They wanted it not only to inspire artists to sketch regularly, but also have it be one of the most powerful tools in their studio work as well. Locations for Sketch Seattle have included Gas Works Park, Pioneer Square, Pike Place Market, Seattle

Center, and Port Townsend, Washington. Now, Stocke and Gundy are bringing their project WR $VWRULD 7KH YHU\ ¿UVW Sketch Astoria will be held from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, June 4. Tuition is $85. The event features a full day of sketching instruction around key areas of Astoria. Students will be based out of Dots N Doodles Art Supples, located at 303 Marine Drive. Registration for Sketch Astoria is open. Sketch

Astoria will take place rain or shine; indoor sketching venues are already on the list as alternative places if it rains. If the event is canceled, all students receive a full refund. In addition to adding Astoria, Stocke and Gundy hope to begin offering sketching days in Portland and San Francisco. Learn more at www. sketchastoria.com.

Explore the exhibition with museum docents during free Tuesday Gallery Talks that start at 12:30 p.m. on June 7, July 5 and Aug. 2. Nebeker was an accomplished symbolist painter and teacher who created highly personalized narratives based on dreams and memories, often embellished with words and notations that helped drive his narrative. Born in San Francisco in 1945 to a Norwegian mother

and a Danish/Swiss father, Nebeker was fascinated with Norwegian art, literature, language and culture. Throughout his career, he IRFXVHG RQ WKH KXPDQ ¿JXUH +LV ZRUN ZDV VWURQJO\ LQÀXenced by Norwegian painter Edvard Munch, the German Expressionists, and by the Vienna Secessionist artists Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele and others.

The artist said of his work, “For me, this process of painting resembles looking through a night window. I peer out, observing and at the same WLPH VHH WKH UHÀHFWLRQ RI WKH interior conditions of my own reality. It is my intent that as the viewer peers into my painting he will not only see a visual record of meaning in my life but will discover the UHÀHFWLRQ RI PHDQLQJ LQ WKHLU own, as in a night window.” Over the years, Royal was the recipient of numerous awards and honors. He studied in California at the Claremont College and Otis Art Institute, and received a Master of Fine Arts at Brigham Young University in 1970. He went on to complete a postgraduate degree from the National School of Fine Arts in Oslo, Norway, in

1972. He served as an artist in residence in Norway in 1972 and 1975 and was awarded a fellowship to live and work in Edvard Munch’s Oslo studio and research graphic art at the Munch Museum. He taught at Clatsop Community College between 1974 and 2014 and served as an Oregon Arts Commissioner. At the invitation of the Norwegian Ministry of Culture in 2004, Nebeker received a residency and one-person exhibition. In addition, he received sabbatical and study grants to Japan and Germany and support grants for travel and exhibition from the Japan Foundation and Art Matters. Nebeker’s paintings and prints have been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions throughout the United States and Europe and

are included in public and private collections in the United States, Norway, Germany and Poland. This exhibition is supported by general operating support grants from the city of Salem’s Transient Occupancy Tax funds and the Oregon Arts Commission.

Tim and Michelle Wunderlich, owners of Seaside Coffee Roasters, outside their downtown location.

A GLIMPSE INSIDE By MATT LOVE

Seaside Coffee House I walked into Seaside Coffee House on a gray Thursday afternoon and Michelle Wunderlich, the owner, didn’t waste any time greeting me warmly like the semi-regular I am. My order was the same: the angst-ridden writer special — black coffee in a white mug. After handing me my mug, Michelle launched into a wonderful story about her teenage daughter, an obsessive reader, who recently exhibited signs of impres-

sive writing ability by cranking out a dystopian tale that caught the attention of her teacher. Perhaps that teacher’s attention will light a fire in Michelle’s daughter to become a writer. It can happen that way. It did for me at 16 when one of my teachers noticed. What a lucky kid! She can hang out in her mom’s café all day and write her dystopian novel series and coffee is eternally free! My advice: set the series in Seaside after global warming has caused sea levels to rise and all the tourists have disappeared. Maybe have the surfers running

everything. No zombies please. The Seaside Coffee House boasts one of the most delightfully eclectic interiors of any coffee joint I’ve ever patronized. It acts as a de facto art gallery for local artists, a quasi museum of vintage bicycles and toy wagons, a library with books, magazines and old Seaside High School yearbooks, and a groovy time warp back into the 1970s when potted and hanging plants were the decorative rage. What I particularly enjoy about this place is that a customer has an astonishing array of choices of how they want to sit: couch, stool at window counter, student desk, plush chairs or plain old wooden chair at a table. My preference is typically wood seating at a table where I can look out the window and watch people come and go. On my most recent visit, I saw an elderly bald man wearing camouflage shorts. His head was covered in a green and orange tattoo of the most intricate design. He seemed very much like a possible character in a dystopian novel set in Seaside. I bet Michelle’s daughter is already on it.

Cormorant >Nor m‫ܬ‬r Hnt@ noun 1. any number of species of large coastal birds of either the genus Phalacrocorax or Nannopterum. Cormorants commonly have long necks, dark plumage, four webbed toes and hooked bills that they use to feed their voracious appetites by diving for fish in the ocean. Common throughout Europe, Asia and the Americas, the three most typical cormorants found on the Oregon Coast are the Brandt’s cormorant, the double-crested cormorant and the pelagic cormorant, which nest on offshore islands throughout the lower Columbia River estuary and upon rocky

Origin: Enters English with the -ant suffix in the early 14th century. Borrowed from the Old French, cormarenc, by way of the Late Latin corvus marinus, which means “raven of the sea” or “crow of the sea.” Corvus is still used today in taxonomy as the genus for crows, ravens, rooks and jackdaws. “‘Is there any cormorant fishing in Japan?’ ‘Yes, I have brought back some excellent photographs showing how cormorant fishing is done,’ said Dr. Smith. ‘I do not know that the custom originated with the Japanese, but it is mentioned in Japanese literature as far back as 700 A. D. The people go out with cormorants, sometimes using as many as 16 birds to one boat. ‘Before the birds are started out, a string is tied tightly about the neck of each to keep it from swallowing the fish. They are also tied by long

strings to the boats. Sometimes metal rings are put around the throat to prevent the fish from sliding into the stomach. ‘The birds dive down into the water and bring up the fish, whereupon the boatmen pull them in, force open their bills and squeeze the throats until the fish drop out. Then the birds are started out for a fresh catch.’”

—Frank G. Carpenter, “Enterprising Fishermen Are the Japanese,” The Sunday Oregonian, Dec. 25, 1904, P. 36

“To lower predation on endangered juvenile salmon migrating downstream, the (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) started last year trying to cut the number of birds on East Sand Island from 13,000 to 5,600 over a four-year period. “The agency estimates East Sand Island holds the largest double-crested cormorant colony in the world, with the number of breeding pairs growing from 100 in 1989 to more than 15,000 in 2013, making up 98 percent of the breeding population in the estuary and eating about 12 million salmon.” —Edward Stratton, “Activists release video of cormorant culling,” The Daily Astorian, May 10, 2016

“Officials say thousands of cormorants abandoned their nests on East Sand Island in the Columbia River and they don’t know why. Reports indicate as many as 16,000 adult birds in the colony left their eggs behind to be eaten by predators including eagles, seagulls and crows. The birds’ mysterious departure comes after the latest wave of government-sanctioned cormorant shooting.”
