Posting since there were several folks out today looking around Breezy and Fort
Tilden and did not find any of the previously reported King Eiders at those
sites.
This drake King Eider was near the eastern most Jetty at Riis. Spending its
time near a Scoter flock made up of mostly Black Scoters. As luck would have
it, it’s another one of those choppy waves day so patience is required when
looking.
Cheers,
