Index of Subjects HI Paul: Yes, we've observed "foot waggling" on Keji lakes. I can recall some concerns expressed over this behaviour a few years back, since we'd had some leg banding activity as part of a research project. However, it is a normal behaviour (not an agitation over the wearing of a band). I'd love to know why they do it. My impression is that some individuals do it more than others. Meanwhile, it's somewhat handy for identifying their leg bands. So much we can learn... LoonWatch is coming up in May (Keji's "free day" for LoonWatch for volunteers). Come along and look for "wagglers"!

I have observed this odd behaviour several times while out taking videos. When I think of it, it was always on salt water areas - not lakes. Paul.
