[Maine-birds] River Eider

An adult male common eider spent the afternoon snoozing on a rock in the
Penobscot River below the Milford Dam in Old Town. I really couldn't
believe my eyes, so I watched him until he moved, lest he be a decoy
somebody had cleverly placed there.

Considering how many eagles visit that section of the Penobscot, an eider
snoozing on a rock is...

...wait for it...

a sitting duck.
