Subject: Diver feeding behavior
=20
Mark, regarding your feeding duck observations, I agree with John, the
Cans & Rings were likely feeding on Vegetation or (more likely) zebra
mussels. When the duck surfaces, they often rearrange the mussels (or
vegetation) in their bill before choking it down and you can often see
the food item then. Divers, particularly Cans, often display that
"frantic" raft/diving behavior you described. I have pet diving ducks,
the action of one duck diving seems to stimulate the others. I've
witnessed the "mad dash" of feeding Canvasbacks on pool #8 numerous
times. They are constantly diving and moving forward in the raft, as if
in some sort of race.=20
P.S. I was at pool #8 this past Sunday, talk about a spectacle! If
you're interested in seeing really LARGE numbers of waterfowl, that is
the place to be.=20
