The capelins are rolling at Middle Cove Beach, attracting visitors with their dip nets and cameras to witness the natural beauty. Every year, they return to beaches to spawn, and their arrival is a sight that attracts thousands of birds and whales, who frequently put on their own performance. Not to mention the throngs of people who want to see the annual capelin roll since it's on their bucket list. It's a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence that's both unusual and unpredictable. The arrival of the capelin signals the start of summer weather, as well as an opportunity to see humpback whales feeding on these slender, fast-moving fish. They're also a traditional delicacy, fresh from the sea for only a few months of the year.
