    "pongso no Tao" - The Orchid Island

    Salted and Sun dried, FLYING FISH are the principal protein source for the Tao 達悟 (Yami 雅美) people of Orchid Island. Fishing for these bony flying fish begins around February and continues until about mid September. In the old culture no other deep ocean fish should be eaten during this time, allowing for their populations to endure forever.
