may in Lancaster sound in northern
Canada and the thick-billed murre is
gather for their annual Spring Fling
all-you-can-eat fish best if you were to
judge this bird by how it flies you’d
have to say it’s no great shakes
compared to other similar animal
aviators you know small wings big body
it makes some manoeuvres challenging so
why should you care of hundreds of
thousands of thick-billed Muir’s gather
here in Lancaster Sound because as
mediocre as these birds are at landing
that’s how spectacular they are
underwater with their short flipper like
wings
the mirrors can plummet to a depth of
300 feet and stay underwater for up to
three minutes at a time
the best show of all is the Muir’s on
their way back up the air trapped in
their feathers expands allowing them to
rock it to the surface in a jet trail
above us see they’re actually great
aviators they just do their best flying
underwater
