Somateria mollissima. 30 April 2004, 5.20 am. Kristiinankaupunki (Western Finland), Skaftung, Trutklobbarna. One fundamental component of the seaside atmosphere in coastal regions in the spring is the sound of the nesting Common Eiders. The courtship song of the male Common Eider is dark and low, a kind of rolling "whoo-ooh". The female birds make more modest sounds like clucking. The recording was made on the shore of an island where also gulls, waders and other shorebirds, in addition to the Common Eiders, were starting to nest. Common Gull, Whooper Swan, Black-headed Gull, Common Ringed Plover, Eurasian Curlew, Common Greenshank, Common Teal, Mallard, Common Redshank, Reed Bunting, Herring Gull. 4'04''
