KING FOR A DAY.


I got this 1st winter Drake King Eider at Maenporth yesterday, where he had for 
a time, teamed up with a female Common Eider. This is a lifer for me.
These shots have been heavily cropped as it was so far out.

    Fabulous bird - even if not in its full regal plumage, John. It would have been a lifer for me too! Well done!!

    Great bird. They show up in very small numbers on the Great Lakes sometimes.
