Posterior spots looking like giant eyes. Distance and lighting were complicated. This is an active and healthy eider. Interacts briefly with COEI especially females. Does seem to stay to the edges of the larger COEI raft as expected. Other species can be found at the outer edges of the COEI raft.
Деталі спостереження
Continuing adult male found at 0945. Later images were better with lighting and distance amicable. It took about 30 minutes to locate King Eider (S. spectabilis) in a flock of about 600 COEI. Previously reported this weekend for Great Backyard Birding. I took sometime to study the use of the channel by the Eider. Common Eider generally stayed towards the edge of the main raft of COEI and foraged there as well. KIEI also did not go to the faster water as indicated by the splashing COEI. This splinter group was foraging right at the edge of the fastest flowing channel of water which was moving at least 12 knots or faster under the bridge. Spectacular eider activity with the Gem in the middle. foy 2019. Thank you to the weekend birders for their time and energy.
