Michael Warren: Steller's Eider
Steller's Eider was discovered by Georg Wilhelm Steller on the northwestern coast of Alaska. This arctic species breeds in the coastal tundras of Siberia and locally along the coasts of northern Alaska. It winters in the Aleutians and along the Alaskan Peninsula, where the winter population has been estimated to be about 200,000, with the heaviest concentrations at Bechevin Bay, Izembeck Bay, and Nelson Lagoon. At this season considerable numbers are also seen in northern Norway, especially at Varanger Fjord. The main breeding places are usually on the tundra some distance inland from salt water, but the rest of the year these hardy sea ducks swim and dive along rocky coasts.
