A dead fish rests in the large pool at China Hole

I wonder where this fish came from. Maybe it got trapped in the pool here as Coyote Creek dried up during the summer, or maybe an animal picked it up somewhere else and dropped it here accidentally...

I pull the dead fish out of the water and leave it on dry land (I might be filtering some of this water to drink tomorrow). It disappears during the evening; apparently an animal found it and carried it away to munch on in a more private area.
