December 11th, 2005. North end of Plum Island, MA.
King Eider Somateria spectabilis. First-winter.
Superb views of this immaculate hatch-year King Eider found by Jim Hully yesterday. Mostly fed alone rather than joining the nearby Common Eider flock.
Taken using Canon Powershot A-95 through Swarovski telescope.
