There was a group of 4-5 Canada Geese that would plunge underwater and stay
completely submerged for 3-5 seconds at Koll Wetlands today on 9/25.
Internet (very brief search) seems to agree that this is quite unusual but
known behavior. This was a first for me. No predators in sight, and I didn’t
see any obvious evidence of feeding, though I assume that’s what they were
doing.
