Observation details
Noticed mid-sized duck flying southeast with a sense of urgency across from the pier. It passed the island, then u-turned to make a close pass of the pier and joined up with four common mergansers heading north towards the cabin area. Reddish brown coloring, normal sized head, slightly curved bill, silhouette, eye and bill features lead me to believe this to be a female adult king eider. Would appreciate any input/concerns for this sighting.
