ALAMEDA, CA — If you take the time, you can see some amazing sights around Alameda.

Bill John shared this photo, telling Patch, "I thought your readers might be interested in this shot of a Double-Crested Cormorant with a Midshipman Fish near crab cove. Unbelievably, it caught and ate FIVE of these in a 15 minute fishing binge."

Thank you, Bill!
