Detalles de la observación
When we arrived at Ordiorne Point SP at about 12:30 pm, we learned that the ongoing BioBlitz had found a female King Eider in Sunken Forest Cove earlier that morning. Later that afternoon we broke out the scope and scanned the area in search of the bird. It was found after about a 15 minute search. Initially seen swimming, but eventual came in closer and hauled out on a rock about 100 ft from us. The bird was a lighter, more buffy brown than surrounding Common Eider. Face with an obvious”grin”. The breast and anterior portion of the neck was very pale. Obvious pale stripe over the eye extending backwards to the sides of the neck. Crown, nape, and back of neck very dark brown. Wings dark brown, speculum black with white edging. Large white patch on forewing visible when wing elevated. (Apparently a continuing bird.)
