Midsummer Masquerade: Celebrate the Solstice in Yachats YACHATS — Midsummer Masquerade is a celebration of the summer solstice in an enchanted fairie realm. The Masquerade takes place 5-11 p.m. Saturday, June 21, at the Yachats Commons located at 441 U.S. Highway 101.

Artists and their elfin helpers will transform the Commons into a place of magic, a fantasy world that celebrates all creatures, real or imaginary, a distinction that will be joyfully blurred during the night’s festivities.

Attendees are invited to come in costume — let out your inner elf, the magic creature you always knew you could be. Costumes and masks are encouraged, but not required. A few masks will be available for purchase at the door. Come in a spirit of play and plan to eat, drink, dance and be merry.

Midsummer Masquerade is a family friendly, community event being held as a benefit for View the Future, a community-based nonprofit which works to preserve and protect the natural beauty and health of the local coastal forests.

Many local sponsors and a small army of volunteers have been working for a whole year to make this an

event that people will be talking about long after the last bit of fairy dust has faded away.

Yachats Youth and Family Programs will partner with the Masquerade providing fun activities for the kids 5-7 p.m. Kids activities will continue until 10 p.m.

Starting at 7 p.m. finger foods and beverages, including beer and wine, will be provided by the Yachats Farm Store and Bread & Roses.

Music and entertainment will be provided by groups from Portland, Eugene, Washington and some local favorites; a DJ providing upbeat dance music; thespians performing snippets from the event’s namesake; fire dancing and more. For a schedule of the entertainment and a preview of the music, visit www.YachatsMM.com. You also will find information about costumes and masks, and the art and silent auctions.

Admission is $10 for adults, $5 ages 6 to 16, and children under 6 are free with an adult. Tickets are on sale now online at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/689736 and at the Yachats Farm Store. Early ticket purchase is highly recommended.

The bodies of most seastars are rather stiff, making these predators generally slow-moving.

(The hard parts under the skin that make seastars stiff appear to soften and break down in seastar wasting disease.)

And, yes, seastars are predators. Common seastars seem especially fond of mussels, but they also eat barnacles, limpets, and other attached or slowermoving animals — I’ve even I’ve seen one dining on a large gumboot chiton.

Creeping until they locate something edible and vulnerable, a seastar grabs hold of its meal with its tube feet. For meals packaged in a shell, such as mussels and clams, the seastar uses the strong tube feet and stiff body to patiently pull open the shell.

The seastar needs only a slight opening. In the middle of the underside of the seastar is the small mouth: food doesn’t go into the mouth into the stomach, the seastar’s stomach goes

The process gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, “going out to lunch!”

Slow-moving and benign-appearing, seastars are nonetheless key predators in the nearshore ocean, playing a critical role in keeping other animal populations in balance.

Look for these favorite intertidal animals, touch them gently, but please don’t try to pull a seastar off the rocks, if you succeed, you’ll tear off some of the tiny tube feet and make

it more difficult for them to hang on in the heavy surf.

And they’re having an especially difficult time right now.

We saw fewer common seastars that morning in Sunset Bay than I expected, but we did see a handful.

And, yes, one had the deflated and stressed appearance of the first stage of seastar wasting disease.

SALEM — The Fish and Wildlife Commission set 2014 fall controlled big game tag numbers and 2014-16 trapping regulations on June 5 during a meeting in Salem.

A total of 134,312 big game (deer, elk, pronghorn, Rocky Mountain goat, bighorn sheep) tags will be available in the draw, the number and type proposed by ODFW staff. Draw results will be available by June 20 at www.dfw.state.or.us/resources/hunting/ or by calling the automated line at 800-708-1782. This year for the first time, ODFW will not be mailing postcard notifications of draw results. Hunters need to check for results.

Trapping regulations were adopted as proposed by staff, except the commission declined to reduce the annual eastern Oregon bobcat limit from five to three.

The annual bobcat limit in eastern Oregon will remain at five for the 2014-16 seasons.

The commission heard about proposed concepts to change 2015 big game regulations. These will get final consideration in October. Learn more about the concepts by viewing the agenda item packet.

The commission approved funding for Access and Habitat projects recommended by the A&H board. These will provide hunting access or improve wildlife habitat on private land in Oregon.

It also set the number and type of 2015 auction and raffle big game tags available, which will be the same as last year. In 2014, auctions and raffles generated $630,711 for wildlife management and research and hunter access, including new records for a bighorn sheep tag ($155,000) and deer and elk raffle sales ($133,509).

The Commission reduced the price of the 2015 Habitat Conservation Stamp from $40 to $20. These are stamps people can purchase voluntarily to support the conservation of high priority native species and habitats identified in the Oregon Conservation Strategy.

Finally, the Commission was briefed on the proposed 2015-17 ODFW budget. They will give it final consideration during an Aug. 1 meeting in Salem.

Tour de Fronds set for Saturday, June 21

POWERS — The least publicized, best-kept bicycling secret in Southwestern Oregon is rolling through the Siskiyou National Forest on Saturday, June 21. This will be the 17th year for the annual Tour de Fronds bicycle ride. Check-in and day of event registration is from 6:30-9:30 a.m. at the Powers County Park.

Three new rides join familiar favorites this year. The 102-mile century loop offers hardy riders steep climbs and exhilarating descents. The two new gravel/two track rides on Johnson Mountain will challenge even the strongest riders. Respiratory Discomfort is 33 miles and Respiratory Distress is 45 miles.

The Tour de Fronds is described as one of the most beautiful cycling events in Oregon. Revel in one of the most complex botanical and geologic areas in the Pacific Northwest. Gaze on some of nature’s finest: a variety of ferns, mosses, lichens, and wildflowers; lush meadows, sparkling waterways, cascading waterfalls, and majestic, old growth Douglas Fir and Port Orford Cedar (some of the largest stands in the world); and abundant wildlife. The Tour de Fronds, so aptly named, is a nature lover’s ideal ride. It traverses Oregon’s premier Glendale/Powers Bicycle Recreation Area, a project of USDA Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management.

All rides will begin and end in ODFW seeks new members for Fishery Powers. There are five tarmac rides and Permit Review Board two gravel rides.

fishing is excellent. Millicoma Pond is set aside for kids fishing only and is a great chance for them to hook into fish. Call before traveling to Millicoma Pond to verify gates are open, 541-267-2557.

Empire Lakes and Tenmile Lakes will be stocked this week with both legal and trophy size rainbow trout.

Powers Pond was stocked this week in time for the Powers Pond Kids Fishing Derby which will be held Saturday, June 14. Most of the area lakes have been stocked at least once this spring with hatchery rainbow trout. Anglers have been catching trout by trolling spinners from small boats in the deeper water. Fly anglers have been catching trout casting and

retrieving small streamer or nymph patterns.

Largemouth bass should be active and cruising the shallow waters along the shoreline looking for an easy meal. Bluegills are preparing to spawn in many of the area lakes and can be found near the weedlines or submerged logs. Small jigs or a worm fished under a bobber are good ways to catch bluegills.

C o o s R i v e r B a s i n : Dungeness crab, bay clams, trout, rockfish, sturgeon Trout season is open in the Coos Basin rivers. Anglers are having good success fishing the large to mediumsize streams for cutthroat trout.

small jigs, and flies all work well to catch trout. In streams and rivers above the head of tide, anglers are restricted to use artificial flies and lures. The daily limit of trout in streams is two fish over 8 inches.

Sturgeon fishing is open in the Coos Basin for catch and release only on any size sturgeon.

Crabbing in Coos Bay continues to be fairly slow.

In a cooperative effort including ODFW and OSU researchers, hundreds of red rock crabs have been tagged with a small blue “floy tag ” in Charleston to gain an understanding of their growth, age, movement, population size and fishery. Red rock crabs are native to Oregon and are found in only a few Oregon estuaries. If you catch a tagged red rock crab contact the ODFW Charleston office at 541-888-5515.

Clamming is excellent during low tides. Before any shellfish harvest trip, make sure to check the Oregon Department of Agriculture website for any updates.

Coquille River Basin: trout,

sturgeon Trout season is open. Small spinners, small jigs, and flies all work well to catch trout. In streams and rivers above the head of tide, anglers are restricted to use artificial flies and lures.

The daily limit of trout in streams is two fish over 8 inches.

Anglers are catching a few smallmouth bass in the mainstem and South Fork Coquille rivers. There is no size limit or bag limit on the number of smallmouth bass you can keep in the Coquille River Basin.

A few shad have been caught in the mainstem.

Dock crabbers are picking up a few legal sized Dungeness crab at Weber’s Pier along the waterfront in Bandon.

Sturgeon fishing is open in the Coquille Basin for catchand-release only on any size sturgeon.

Loon Lake: rainbow trout, bass, bluegill Loon Lake was stocked with about 7,500 trout so far this spring. The lake can also provide good fishing for crappie, bluegill and bass. The Loon Lake Resort boat ramp and the BLM ramp

and campground also are open.

Tenmile Basin: yellow perch, largemouth bass, trout Yellow perch are biting on nightcrawlers or jigs tipped with a worm in Tenmile Lakes. There are lots of smaller yellow perch that anglers have to sort through to catch enough keepers for a meal. Some of the keeper yellow perch are over 12 inches long.

Anglers have been catching lots of 3- to 5-pound largemouth bass. Most of the bass have been caught in shallow water along the shorelines usually associated with cover like submerged logs or vegetation. Crankbaits and plastics like senkos or brushhogs have been working to catch bass.

Trout fishing in Tenmile Lakes continues to be good. One hundred hatchery rainbow trout were tagged next to the dorsal fin with a 2-inch blue numbered tag. These fish were tagged as part of a tagged fish contest sponsored by Ringo’s Lakeside Marin, stop by or contact the marina 541-759-3312.

Umpqua River, south: trout, smallmouth bass Winchester Bay: steelhead Fishing the Triangle and

South Jetty has been good for rockfish. Redtailed Surfperch are beginning to arrive and will increase over the next few weeks. Popular perch fishing areas include the North Beach across from the East Boat Basin and marker 12 above the East Boat Basin. Ocean fishing out of Winchester Bay has improved as more salmon have moved inshore.

HUNTING C o u g a r hunting is open.

Hunting cougar is a challenge because these animals are very secretive, but harvest success is greatest adjacent to private land with high deer populations using a predator call.

REMINDER: Wolves and coyotes can look alike Most wolves in the state today are in northeast Oregon but a few have dispersed further west and south. Wolves are protected by state and/or federal law and it is unlawful to shoot them.

Co yote hunters need to take extra care to identify their target as wolves can look like coyotes, especially wolf pups in the midsummer. ODFW appreciates

hunters’ assistance to establish wolves’ presence in Oregon; please report any wolf sightings or wolf sign to ODFW using the online reporting system.

VIEWING PLEASURE Neo-tropical migrants including common yellow throats appear near local wetlands feeding on insect hatches.

Good places to watch this interaction are wetlands next to East Bay Drive, which follows the east side of Coos Bay, wetlands along North Bank Road, which follows the Coquille River from state Highway 42 to U.S. Highway 101, and Bandon Marsh National Wildlife Refuge.

Seal and sea lion abundance in coastal waters around Coos County is high at this time of year, especially south of Coos Bay, at Simpson Reef, a heavily used haul out. From the look out, viewers can see California sea lions, Steller sea lions, harbor seals and elephant seals.

Do not approach seals and sea lions. If you think an animal in trouble, contact ODFW Marine Mammal Stranding Network at 800-452-7888.
