Hi all,

 I was out @ Rainbow Haven last week and got some video of a group of =
Common Eiders.=20
 I mistook them for a flock of geese landing.

 First I thought I was "filming" a feeding frenzy.=20
But after landing they coalesced  into a compact mass of about 20 birds.=20=

=20
Quite an amazing sight. Too bad I wasn't closer.
=20
Has anyone else observed this?

The short video is on my youtube site below.
Paul.
