Wrong bird. This is a Loon and one of the coolest birds alive. They dive under water and swim long distances popping up in other spots away from predators. Why the last panel in this comic is funny is that these birds can’t really walk on land. They sort of push themselves and try to stand up but it’s just weird. They are also just curious about humans but will keep their distance.

Now Canada Geese are just total jerks. They go out of their way to bite anyone they don’t like the look of. They are just a-holes.
