An immature male Common Eider was found this morning on the intra-coastal side of Lloyd State Park. The link to the eBird list with photos is provided. It was feeding in the basin where the Port Everglades tugs berth and around the mooring island in the center. This is west of the pavilion beside the boat ramps in the park. Accessed from the first parking lot on the west side of the park road.

Eider is still in same area as first reported by Mark Barney, though there are a number of cruise ships docked there. I observed the Eider near the stern of the last ship to the left and it eventually moved past the ship and then behind the stern of the ship. Sighted around 10:30 AM. Will post images to eBird later.
Sorry about the misspelling Mark, blasted phone autocorrect!
