Default Goldfish "parking" under the waterfall?

Hi all,

Approx. 750 gallon (US) pond with plain old pet store goldfish that have
been in the pond around four years, at least the original generation, and a
waterfall about 1-1/2 feet high that drops into the back of the pond.
I have noticed lately that the goldfish will "queue up" like buses in a
station righ under the waterfall. This only seems to happen in the early
evening, when the direct sun is gone - during the day, they're usually
hiding under the lillies.
They don't seem unhappy, and they frolic, play, spawn, and eat - but they
seem to like to do this "parking" thing. Any idea what this is?
