5/20 Ninebark, columbine, Samish village, WA ferries, F/V Chief Joseph, biosolids plan

Pacific Ninebark [Native Plants PNW]

Pacific Ninebark Physocarpus capitatus
Ninebarks are so called because it was believed there are nine layers (or nine strips) of peeling bark on the stems. Pacific Ninebark is native from Southeast Alaska to the coast ranges of Santa Barbara County in California, mostly in the coastal states and British Columbia. The wood of Pacific Ninebark has been used to make small items such as children’s bows and knitting needles.  A tea made from the bark was used as a laxative or to induce vomiting.  Due to toxicity concerns, caution is advised for any internal use.

Regarding columbine
Don Norman from Go Natives Nursery writes that the columbine that is native is Aquilegia Formosa.  There are non-natives that occur in almost every yard, which will cross with the natives, so if you want to collect seed or allow your native to spread, you will need to pull out, or cut off the flowers of the non-natives.

5/17 Columbine, Nooksack flooding, tidal marshes, orca superpower, boat invasives rule, week in review

Columbine

 

Columbine
Aquilegia is a genus of about 60–70 species of perennial plants that are found in meadows, woodlands, and at higher altitudes throughout the Northern Hemisphere, known for the spurred petals of their flowers. (Wikipedia)

Today's top stories in Salish Current: Jail, behavioral health, community policing challenge new Whatcom County sheriff / Lopez author’s debut novel rooted in people and place

Crossborder Nooksack teams have met 10 times since October
Ten meetings in 10 months might not sound like a lot, but given recent history, the nine governments trying to prevent another devastating Nooksack River flood might as well be teenagers who can’t get off the phone with one another. Whether they’ll ever be able to take things to the next level remains to be seen. Tyler Olsen reports. (Fraser Valley Current)

Rare tidal marshes set the table for salmon recovery
Tidal wetlands are crucial to Chinook salmon recovery but are among the most threatened habitats in Puget Sound. In 2012, The Nature Conservancy began restoring a 150-acre section of tidal marsh on Port Susan Bay at the mouth of the Stillaguamish River. That project is entering a new phase and may soon connect with other adjacent restoration efforts put forth by the Stillaguamish Tribe. Eric Wagner reports. (Salish Sea Current Magazine)

UBC discovery of orca’s superpower makes them even more scary as yacht attacks rise
In a story that is becoming terrifyingly common, another yacht was sunk this week by a gang of orcas in the Strait of Gibraltar. And new research from scientists at the University of British Columbia shows that these killer whales are so efficient at breathing, they can perform a dive on just a single breath of air. The researchers combined drone footage with data from tags suction-cupped to 11 orcas off the coast of B.C. to gather information on the animals’ habits. They found that the whales in their study took about 1.2 breaths per minute while resting, and 1.5 to 1.8 per minute while travelling or hunting. (National Post)

B.C. imposes new rules on boaters to stop spread of parasite
British Columbia's chief veterinarian has issued an order making it illegal to transport boats or other watercraft without removing the drain plug to prevent the spread of whirling disease. Whirling disease, which is fatal in fish, is caused by a microscopic parasite that mainly targets salmon and trout. The Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship says the order takes effect on Friday and is also intended to keep invasive mussels out of B.C. waterways.(Canadian Press)

Sturgeon poacher

 

Sturgeon Poacher Agonus acipenserinus
The Sturgeon Poacher can grow up to 12 inches in length. They have a slender, tapering body that is covered with scales that are actually modified bony plates. Found from Northern California to the Bering Sea in Alaska, in shallow waters to depths of about 200’, these fish have very small mouths, that are surrounded by clumps of cirri. These cirri actually contain their taste buds which are used to grovel through the sand and silt bottoms it prefers to inhabit in search of a tasty shrimp or other very small invertebrate.

Navy jet noise could mean long-term health impacts for Whidbey Island
More than 74,000 people on Whidbey Island could face long-term health impacts from the U.S. Navy jet noise that’s blasted over residents several days a week for over a decade, new research shows.  A study  from the University of Washington, published last week in the Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology, reports the noise from the Boeing EA-18G Growlers and their training drills present a “substantial risk” to two-thirds of Island County residents.

Environmentalists say the species is in trouble, with around 2,000 to 4,000 of the animals believed to be left after a sharp population decline from the 1990s to mid-2000s. With this in mind, the Center for Biological Diversity this week petitioned the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to grant the marmots, which can grow to around 32 inches long and weigh up to 20 pounds, new protections under the federal Endangered Species Act. Bill Lucia reports. (Washington State Standard)

Blue Elderberry

Blue Elderberry Sambucus nigra ssp. cerulea
Blue Elderberry was sometimes known as S. glauca; it is more commonly known as Sambucus cerulea (or cerulean), but many botanists feel that it and the American Elderberry, Sambucus canadensis, are just a subspecies of the well-known European species, the Black Elder, Sambucus nigra. Elder trees were important in Celtic folklore and mythology; they were considered sacred to fairies and were used for making wands.
