For the second time I could watch this bird and in both cases the circumstances have similarly arranged. Alone king eider swam among a large flock of eiders. The first contact in Tromso in the harbor bay resulted in a poor documentary photo, so I did not set up a gallery. This time it was a bit better but I still have to wait for the opportunity to take really good photos. Anyway, the gallery of the king eider, which belongs to the Polish fauna, has been created. For now, the gallery get a quality rating of a satisfactory.

Not so long ago, when creating a gallery of the king eider, I wrote that watching king eiders in both situations looked similarly. And for the third time it was alike, however in this case one of my most interesting photos of this bird was taken - in flight with other eiders. It seems that the more difficulties in creating a gallery, the more valuable it is and more emotions are connected with it. Or maybe you just have to go to Valanger and in the morning take a series of correct photos within one hour?
