	Eiders: Wildlife Notebook Series - Alaska Department of Fish and Game
		Males of the four eider species are easy to distinguish by their fl and white patterns and areas of soft vibrant color, unique to eiders.
		The common eider (male) is the only eider with a fl cap extending to the forehead and around the eye and divided on the crown by a white streak originating from the hind neck.
		Common eiders nest near driftwood or clumps of grass on barrier islands, sandy beaches, and on islands in tundra ponds, often in association with gull colonies.

	Eider - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eiders are large seaducks in the genus Somateria.
		Steller's Eider, despite its name, is in a different genus.

	Eider River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Eider (German: Eider; Danish: Ejderen; Latin: Egdor or Egdore) is the longest river of the German state of Schleswig-Holstein.
		The middle part of the Eider was appropriated for use as part of the Kiel Canal.
		In the early Middle Ages the Eider was the border between the Saxons and the Danes, as reported by Adam of Bremen in 1076.

	Hinterland Who's Who - Common Eider
		Eiders feed during the day by diving to the bottom in waters from 3 to 20 m deep to take mussels, clams, scallops, sea urchins, starfish, and crabs, which are swallowed whole and crushed in the large gizzard.
		Eider ducks in most areas recovered dramatically at rates of up to 12 percent per year; for example, in Maine, the number of nests increased from fewer than 100 in one colony in 1910 to more than 20 000 nests in over 75 colonies by 1970.
		This is because the eiders present on the Newfoundland and Labrador coasts and in the Gulf of St. Lawrence during the winter are not local breeders: they belong to larger Arctic breeding populations.

	Common Eider
		A large die-off of eiders during the winter of 1991-1992, which occurred when areas of open water froze, is the most likely cause of the decline.
		In 1995 we conducted a pilot study of brood ecology of the Common Eider Somateria mollissima with specific reference to movements, habitat use and behaviour of both adult females and ducklings on the Wolves Archipelago in the Bay of Fundy.
		High duckling mortality is a common phenomenon in Eiders and survival of ducklings does not apparently regulate Common Eider population numbers; however, it may potentially limit the growth rate of the population.

	Eider - The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
		Eiders are highly gregarious and usually stay close inshore, riding the swell in a sandy bay or strung out in long lines out beyond the breaking waves.
		Many eiders nest in gull and tern colonies, where they derive some protection as their more aggressive neighbours combine to chase away predators.
		In the breeding season, eiders are best looked for from the Northumberland coast northwards and off the west coast of Scotland.

	Eider Ducks Northumberland Northumbria England UK GB (page 270)
		The Eider duck (Somateria mollissima) is regarded as the first bird in the world to have been given conservation protection, thanks to St Cuthbert, an early Northumbrian saint, who offered eiders sanctuary on the Farne Islands in the seventh century.
		The eider is one of the most numerous sea ducks in the world with the European population estimated at about 2 million.
		Eider feet are very large and webbed, and their wings are short and powered by strong muscles.
