Talk:King eider

There are several pictures in Wikimedia that might be useful to this article. Three in particular seem useful for identification purposes.

There seems to be a significant color change in the male birds. The on-line literature seems to suggest that the males are highly colored during breeding season and more plainly colored for most of the year. I didn't see a completely credible source to confirm this on-line, but judging by the on-line images it appears that there are two clearly distinctive male coloration patterns.

This bird seems to have undergone a precipitous population decline as have other Eider species. The article should probably make note of that. --Davefoc (talk) 21:08, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
