The common Eider is beyond doubt my favourite sea bird. Whilst the Puffin is probably more colourful the Eider is just lovable. I know this is not the sort of language to use about animals as it projects human values onto another creature but I don't care. It is no wonder that St Cuthbert protected these animals. In the summer the Northumbria sea is a lice with the quizzical of the - which can just be heard on the YouTube video below. So why mention then now? Well I hope to capture some interesting photographs of eider next week. I am going to Seahouses which is about as good as it gets when it comes to seeing Eider and so lets hope I am lucky.
