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.
