Great Egret - San Francisco Bay

Great Egret eating a small fish, San Francisco Bay Area. In early October 2008, a large number of small fish migrated into a marsh in the San Francisco Bay, and what seemed like thousands of birds swept in for a large breakfast. While several Gulls and Pelicans feasted out in the water, Herons and Egrets combed the shoreline for their own feast.
