The Eyed Egg Stage


     Greetings! I am Karl the Coho salmon. Right now I am an eyed-egg in a river in Vancouver, B.C. I am a round, pink and a pea-sized egg. I'm in a nest also known as a redd with other thousands of eggs. We need darkness to grow and live right now. My predator is the trout. I'm an embryo in the egg. This is life as a tiny Coho egg.
