We have a visitor at our rehab center for the next couple of weeks with a fractured left wing. We know what it is. Any guesses?

Very good. He's in good shape except for the fracture. His appetite is excellent.

Now THAT'S a long-overdue UK bird! Well worth a twitch!

Historically, spectacled eiders nested along much of the coast of Alaska, from the Nushagak Peninsula in the southwest, north to Barrow, and east nearly to the Canadian border. They also nested along much of the arctic coast of Russia. A visit to UK might be a big wish.
