Media notes
This photo shows them forming a "fish ball" in response to the eagle flying close by.
Observation details
All of these were in the biggest pond. When the Bald Eagle flew close by, they all flew together and formed a dense ball, reminiscent of those fish balls formed in the ocean when dolphins approach. Counted individually when the eagle passed and they all spread up onto the grass to graze.
