A little more information on the Common Eider report from Dayton. Here's the link to the eBird checklist that included the report and photo: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S16015715 The photograph looks very much like a photo by Jerry Talkington that was published in Jim McCarty's blog in 2009: http://blog.cleveland.com/neobirding/2009/02/_eight_years_ago_i.html It's possible that the person submitting the eBird report may have included the image just as an example to indicate what his bird looked like to him, and didn't mean to claim that this was a photo of the actual bird that he saw. Reverse image lookup on Google Images can be a useful app in situations like this.
