I’m surprised they have negative bouyancy with all that trapped air in their feathers.
“From a perch, it walks into the water and deliberately submerges, but it cannot defy the laws of specific gravity and walk along the bottom. Undoubtedly when entering the water, it grips with its strong feet, but the method of progression beneath the surface is by swimming, using the wings effectively for “flying” under water. It holds itself down by muscular exertion, with its head well down and its body oblique, its course beneath the surface often revealed by a line of rising bubbles.”
That’s molten lead. Such is their dedication to fishing…
This is what I imagine water breathing potions do
That bird isn’t birding.
It’s fishing.
It’s dipping.
It’s sipping.

It yearns for the algea from long ago, it wants to return
Crayfish, on their way out of the water: “Wait, where ya going? We just arrived!”
It’s just standing there though
imagine being a fish and some fucker dips into your world from the aether above just to grab a snack
Imagine turning a corner in the middle of your town and you just see a Great White Shark perched on a bin, quietly waiting.
You mean this isn’t c/lemmyshitpost?
Its actually a plane.
Instructions unclear, flying in wrong fluid.

Metal Mario vibes.
He likes the bubbles.
I see Comorants all the time where I live, but it’s kind of trippy watching these little birds being as comfortable underwater.
