Hi Tweets and Ray...Sherry Hagen's second post on the 19th described
the eider as a first yr male. It better be so because I just wrote my
Sunday bird column saying it is! :) I am also very glad to hear it is
flying; one of my fears is a bird like that is hanging around because
it is injured in some way.
