A family of ducks will be swimming along (& the ducklings have been of varying ages, anywhere from quite young to fledgling, size-wise), when all of a sudden one would just disappear as if suddenly pulled under. It does not re-appear. The rest of the duck family skitter quickly away. They were wondering what would be the most likely type of animal that would and could do this. Seal, otter, some kind of fish, or bird? Thank you for your thoughts.
