Just before copulation, the drake and hen typically float face-to-face and pump their heads up and down. This water ballet consists first of wagging his tail; next, dipping his bill and flicking water by the quick upward movement of his head, creating a showy stream of water droplets. If the two are so inclined, the intensity of the dance will increase, and then drake apparently will have found success. Elevation: 466 m. Date added to IBC: June 22, 2016.
