hard to believe


 Murres dive extremely deep to catch fish .  It seems incredible that a bird with hollow bones to fly can swim and catch fish down to several hundred feet or more .  I remember catching a few over the years on bait at over 100 feet .  This one grabbed a plastic plug at more than 200 feet .  

  See this article about them swimming even deeper (  it says 500 ft  , 150 metres ) and leaving a bubble trail on sonar .
