Description: James Wilson has just finished putting the bones, head, and entrails of a salmon into the ocean as part of the Salmon Ceremony. James is standing in for one of the Henderson twins (his wife Nadine's twin sister) who was not available to perform the ceremony. The ceremony is being performed by a delegation of First Nations people from Canada for a group of Ainu in Japan.
