I'm gathering information on seabirds plunge-diving maximum speeds.
Gannets are the most studied bird and there is quite a few studies on their speeds, however, for other seabirds this type of data seems to be much more difficult to gather.
The only value that I have found for terns was a rough estimate from a photographer's blog of ~26 km/h (~16 miles/h).
I would also appreciate information for Brown pelicans and any other plunge-divers.
Kind regards and Thank you.
