Running on water: Common Goldeneye
I photographed this female Common Goldeneye today at Brush Hollow Reservoir northeast of Canon City, CO.
The goldeneye flushed but was not fearful enough to fly off, just to 'patter' across the water (and make short low flights) to the far side of the lake--this method of locomotion looks like the bird is running on top of the water. SeEtta
