Observation details
Observed in evening in Nisqually River, which is fast flowing, and the color of chocolate milk. It appeared to be 1 adult female and 4 young. They were settled on a large log, but then became active, swimming across the swift current. Very adept at swimming in fast moving current They were putting their heads under water (to feed?). Stuck very close together. River was loud so no vocalizations heard. Chocolate brown adult with white patch near beak and white circle behind and below eye. Breast mottled.
