Not sure how I screwed this one up (High ISO I think.)

Brad got a bit nostalgic.

Some pics. ( As I sit here bored and recover from a late night in the big city and an early morning at work. ) (Silverdoctor, just couldn't pass up the Ghost..)

Nice pics always. You're a good hand with a camera..

Awesome..

Hehehe...

Awesome pics. Disappearing west for a few days starting Wed. Can't wait.

Awesome pics.

I think that may be right.. They seemed to have no difficulty under water, and would cover quite a distance. Just staying under must be tough for a large bird like that. Injured bird would probably have a tough time with that I'd think. I was definitely looking twice to see a goose dive and swim submerged, not once, but twice, for sure..

Possible, didn't want to pressure it too much so I didn't get too close. But, to have 2 separate birds do the same thing kind of made me think not. Couldn't see anything wrapped around either through the camera.

Under it went. (First one.)

Swimming, body submerged. (Second one.)

Was out for a bit today, saw something that had me doing a double take. Saw a splash ahead of me, wasn't really paying attention, assumed it was a riser. Was looking out on the water and saw the "riser" pop up, it was a goose. Swam really low in the water, so I motored a little closer to make sure it was a goose, and splash, under it went. Popped up again, same deal. Would stay under a bit, and cover a good distance under water. Figured it was wounded or something, (no young nearby, seen them swim low with goslings around..) so I kept my distance. Heading back in, about 10 minutes later, same thing.. (no, not the same bird..) Never seen that before.

Awesome. You've got a good eye..

He's unreal..

Had to watch a few more times.. Badass.

That's awesome..

Yup.

Battery is a nice touch.. Great vid.
