In photos: Alewives return to Mill Brook in Westbrook

Alewives have returned to Mill Brook in Westbrook this spring, swimming upstream to get to Highland Lake to spawn. It’s the largest fish migration from Casco Bay and part of Maine’s success story in opening up rivers to allow alewives to return to their traditional spawning grounds. Press Herald photographer Gregory Rec was there to capture the beauty and action.
