Changing the camera from underwater to above, some visuals vanishes until moving
Description
I have noticed that in the officials Gondwa map, if you look underwater with changing your perspective by moving your camera, once you look out the certain visuals disappear until you move.

Observed Result
I had also noticed this on some other creatures, which required a certain angle while floating. I didn't record those but, the video I'll be providing shows it most clearly. It mostly happened to me in relatively large water sources like lakes or some rivers. At first I thought the weather cleared while I was looking underwater but once I took a step it reverted back to normal. Afterwards I tried it in some small ponds but did not succeed.
Expected Result
The weather or visuals should not change after looking under water, unless the weather clears or some other climatic thing occurs.
Steps to Reproduce
Be a preferably terrestrial creature, in my experience, something larger than small tiers.
Get to a relatively large water source. (e.g.: Big Quill Lake, Grand Plains River, Hunter's Thicket Lake...)
Drink from it while your ankles touch water, so you can see a bit of underwater once you move your camera.
Either keep your camera under water for a few seconds, or keep the camera on the border of the water and air.
Slowly (or not, but I've seen it work slowly most of the time) look up, and do not move your creature.
Once you take a step the visuals will be back to normal.
