Many species of birds use Celery Bog in West Lafayette as a place to stop for a while during their migrations. Huge flocks (many hundred birds) of coots (Fulica americana) are common here in spring and fall. Not very many of them are here right now, but some of them were rather close, I was able to take pictures of their diving for food. They did huge splash! On the last photo, the bird has some food in its beak.
