NATURE Hatchet Fish part
of earth’s greatest
migration

TEXT/PHOTO BY EDIE WIDDER, PH.D., CHIEF SCIENTIST OCEAN
RESEARCH & CONSERVATION ASSOCIATION (ORCA)

Off our coasts and around the world the most massive animal migration
on the planet occurs on a daily basis as animals like this hatchet fish
swim up from the dark depths where they hide during the day. This is
all part of a giant game of hide-and-seek ocean inhabitants must play in
order to avoid being seen by visual predators. In the ocean, where there
are no trees or bushes to hide behind, animals have evolved a remark-
able array of tricks to avoid being seen. Some, like jellyfish, are transpar-
ent, while others, like this fish, employ a different kind of camouflage.

The hatchet fish is so named because it looks like a hatchet with a thin
blade of a body with silver sides. Its shape minimizes its silhouette as
seen from below. Like many deep sea predators it has upward looking
eyes and an upward pointed mouth as it swims around looking for some
telltale shadow that will become its dinner. But all the time it’s hunting,
it’s also being hunted by bigger predators swimming below it doing the
exact same thing. So besides its narrow silhouette and silver sides that
reflect the dim available light downward, it also produces from its bel-
ly bioluminescence that is the same color and intensity as the sunlight
filtering down from above. And if a cloud passes over the sun and dims
the light then the fish dims its belly lights comparably. For its camou-
flage to work it must remain within a narrow light range, which is why
great masses of these fish travel up toward the surface in the evening as
the sun sets and then travel back down again as the sun rises.

DINING REVIEW

Citron Bistro: Comfortable dining in the Village Shops

BY TINA RONDEAU Lobster and Shrimp Pasta. Grilled Swordfish with Tropical Fruit Salad. PHOTOS BY LEAH DUBOIS
Columnist Blackened Fish Tacos.

After two years, the word I would use
to best describe the Citron Bistro in In-
dian River Shores is comfortable.

This clubby restaurant, owned by Jay
McLaughlin and wife Joan who have
done a spectacular job of transforming
the Village Shops, now feels like it has
been there forever.

As its name suggests, it is a bistro –
not a white-tablecloth restaurant – but
the food is as consistently good as any
served in fancy dining establishments.

On a visit one evening last week,
even though there was a breeze rus-
tling through the trees and several
groups of people dining al fresco in the
courtyard, we decided to eat inside.

Shown to a nice table by the window,
our server quickly brought a basket of
warm bread and took our drink order

craft hard cider, Woodchuck, for our
companion).

as well as back.

But wine remains the city’s sphere
of excellence. You cry “Bordeaux!” and
people say “wine.” Underlining this
status, the much-heralded Cité du Vin
opened last month on the banks of the
Garonne, just in time for the 10th Bor-
deaux Wine Festival.

Now, the Cité may look like the
shiny foot of a cartoon character –
“swirl of wine” is the official line – but
it is a world-beater; certainly the best
wine center I’ve encountered. Grant-
ed, competition is not intense. Most
wine museums are dreadful. I’ve spent
some of the most forsaken hours of my
life looking at old wine-presses and
vine-spraying equipment.

The appalling standards are attained
because wine museums tend to be cre-
ated and managed by wine people, the
folk least qualified for the job. They are
thrilled by coverage of tannins and soil
types, as normal people are not. They
bore on an olympian scale.

Thus, the Cité’s inspiration has
been to bring in (alongside scientists,
historians, oeonologists, and that sort
of person) proper professional popu-
larizers. The scenographers – London
design agency Casson-Mann – have a
track record of making stuff interest-
ing. Digital and interactive elements
burst out all over the place. It’s head-
turning.

Meanwhile, director Philippe Mas-
sol arrived not from the vineyards but
from Poitier’s Futuroscope theme park
with the idea that, even if you don’t
like wine or can’t tell a Margaux from

going to have a good time.
