Flotilla (Somateria mollissima)

After the 'fox gate' we parked the other side of the causeway to scan around and see what we could fird.

First up was some female Eider, no youngsters with them though.

It appears that all the males disappear from the coast after breeding, as we didn't see any during my holiday.

I'm off out most of the day, so I'll try and catch up later on.
