The common eider (Somateria mollissima) is a large sea-duck that is distributed over the northern coasts of Europe, North America and eastern Siberia. Somateria mollissima breeds in Arctic and some northern temperate regions, but winters somewhat farther south in temperate zones, when it can form large flocks on coastal waters.
