    What a beautiful day.
    
    While motoring our boat out the estuary at about 11 this morning, we
    saw an osprey carrying a fish. It was being followed/chased by 2 gulls
    and a red-tail and headed toward the Alameda side.
    
    Then, going under the new bay bridge span, we saw a peregrine perched
    underneath. Several groups of harbor porpoises (I know, they're not
    birds). Lots of pelicans and cormorants, too. All in all, a good day
    for wildlife.
