Wildlife near Fremont, CA

Fremont sits at the south end of San Francisco Bay, and the salt marshes and mudflats at Coyote Hills and the Don Edwards refuge are a shorebird stronghold. Avocets, stilts, and thousands of sandpipers work the flats, harbor seals haul out nearby, and burrowing owls hold the grassland edges. The hills behind town add black-tailed deer, coyotes, and golden eagles overhead.

Built from recent research-grade iNaturalist observations. Identifications are community-sourced and may occasionally be wrong, and the ranking reflects where people record and photograph wildlife, so a species seen often here is not necessarily rare elsewhere.
