Common eider duck at Castle Island

See it larger.

A bunch of common eiders, including this guy, were bobbing around on the Sugar Bowl side of Castle Island this afternoon (thanks to Boston duck Twitter for the ID).

That's not a duck. It's a killer whale in disguise. Note the dorsal fin on the back and the obvious duck mask on the rostrum.
