Photos of a Great Egret foraging for Yellowfin Gobies in the shallow mudflat next to Breakwater Beach at the southeast corner of Alameda Point. After catching a Goby, the Egret would then have to fling the little fish into the air to maneuver the fish back to its mouth. Photos are from Friday, February 9, 2018.

My blog is Alameda Point Environmental Report covering parks and open space, environmental cleanup, wildlife, and sustainability at the former Navy base in Alameda now called Alameda Point.
Articles on my blog are frequently posted on the Alameda Post news site.
I also host a Flickr photo site, which is accessible via the sidebar wildlife photo gallery.
I hope you find my stories and photos of interest.
