#FunFishFriday! Good news for #salmon lovers of all types (humans, eagles, river otters): Salmon have been making a comeback in creeks around the estuary! Putah Creek (Solano County) has seen over 500 and they've been spotted in lower Alameda Creek for the 2nd straight year!

Ok, we did not create this, so we can't take credit or blame. #StarryFlounderNight #NoVanGogh #funfishfriday @starryflo @OGFishLab

Happy #FunFishFriday! Our friends over at @OGFishLab observed 11 Ctenophores (comb jellies) in their April trawl.

We have 🤩 good news and 😢bad news from our friends @OGFishLab: 🤩 7 Sturgeon in Coyote Creek were caught on sonar earlier this month! 😢 Sturgeon populations in the Estuary may now be in danger due to the hundreds killed off by the algae bloom back in August. #FunFishFriday

We can't be the only ones who have this feeling after a full day of diving. Who else here gets this feeling? https://t.co/Cwiu1UMPBQ #funfishfriday #diveaai #hungrydivers #sarcasticfringehead

It's #FunFishFriday! 🐟 This unusual creature made the news last winter when a photo of one washed ashore went viral, but the shovelnose guitarfish is common along the central CA coast. The intrepid researchers @OGFishLab spotted 4 babies during their recent survey of the S. Bay!

Happy #FunFishFriday! Although not technically fish, bottlenose dolphins have recently migrated to the #BayArea as waters have warmed along the Central and Northern California coast due to #climatechange. PC: @TMMC

#FunFishFriday: Fish eye lenses! Scientists are learning how to track #methylmercury exposure in fish using a new method of examining fish eye lenses that use corresponding otoliths, or ear stones, to assess age and pollutant exposure over time. https://t.co/ZZTNF0AUq4

It's #FunFishFriday! From the news, you may think #smelt and #salmon are the only fish in the sea, er, #estuary--but they're not! Today we're highlighting the plainfin midshipman which can breathe air, glow, and sing. More on this funky fish in #sfestuary: 📷: @OGFishLab @ucdavis

Hey, there Larry the Leopard Shark! #FunFact: Females lay large, purplish-black eggs thar are anchored to the seafloor with many long hair-like fibres. #sharks #biodiversity #FunFishFriday PC: @maxkelly99 a @newcastlemarine #PhDstudent

Happy #FunFishFriday! Did you know we had bat rays in the Estuary? 3 were found in @OGFishLab's June survey and monitoring! For more info on the fun critters found in this round, visit: https://t.co/COwe7QxwmR 📸: OG Fish Lab

Today's #funfishfriday is all about reproduction! Freshwater mussels start their lifecycle as babies feeding off host fish. The parent mussel lures the host fish, then shoots a cloud of babies at the fish's mouth/gills! More at https://t.co/u7E5OSRDeI 📷: Roger Tabor/USFWS

@RestoretheDelta Oooh, good one for #funfishFriday! We've heard on good authority that Delta smelt smell like cucumbers. 🐟🥒
