King Eider on Lake Ontario

Certainly not the best photograph of a King Eider you'll ever see, but as this was my first ever, I'm pretty pleased - even if it is a rather shoddy digi-scoped effort! This was one of three females present today on Lake Ontario at Stoney Creek.

Note: Turns out after a thorough review of my North American Life List (May 2009), this was actually my 400th species!
