Fantastic wildlife photos – this is proof of the richness we have right here in Alameda. I hope that we can include wetlands restoration as a major strategy for Alameda Pt. open space. We should also plan to preserve the 22 acre Beltline as Jean Sweeney Memorial Natural Park (it would be a fitting tribute to Jean and a unique urban preserve for wildlife.
