"An eagle-eyed St. Paul resident traipsing through nature spotted hundreds of dead fish floating Wednesday in an icy Mississippi River bay near Shepard Road and Randolph Avenue. The site was both alarming and unprecedented for her, but the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources maintains it’s not unexpected.
"In the waning days of winter, a particular species of fish ill-suited for the Minnesota cold — the gizzard shad — is prone toward going belly-up on the Mississippi in the southern part of the state."

#Enbridge said #Line6 spilled 2 gallons of oil. Revised to 126 gallons. Now 69,000+ gallons, for now. Who is the criminal?
The same Enbridge running lines thru the #MississippiRiver headwaters.
The same Enbridge that spilled 1M+ gallons into the #KalamazooRiver.
The same Enbridge fighting to keep #Line5 under the #MackinacStraights in the #GreatLakes. It’s spilled 29 times, that we know of. 20% of earth’s #freshwater.
Here we are, trapped in the amber of the moment. There is no why.
