Observation details

Exactly 200, that can be credited to this species through confirmation and records with photos. Most were very distant and few came quite close to the ship. Was surprised to even see this species, to be honest, considering the location and time of year. All the eiders that day were probably King Eiders... Possibly, the actual count was a remarkable 363
