Subject: [Ohio-birds] Common Eiders, North Perry, Lake County, 10/29

I just had a group of three Common Eiders, 1 male and 2 females, pass close
by heading east.  I was able to get them in my scope and follow them out of
sight.  The male was spectacular in plumage.  I was also able to follow the
females and head shapes looked good for common also.  They were heading east
at a good clip.



I have seen several hundred waterfowl so far this morning, mostly mergansers
and scaup.  There have been a handful of scoters.  Duck flocks are pretty
widely scattered.  No brant so far but three small swan flocks.  Also of
note was a pomarine jaeger and 4 lesser black-backed gulls.  Every day has
been different.
