I have uploaded a series of photos of a Krill die-off that I found in =
Kingsburg this morning. I=E2=80=99m not sure if this is a common/natural =
occurrence in this area or if it has been previously reported.

A quick search of the Internet does bring up some info indicating that a =
parasite has caused similar die-offs on the west coast.

The photos can be seen at this link

The remains were spread across several hundred meters of coast and =
appeared to have washed up over several tide cycles.
