In winter eiders gather where food is
         plentiful, such as areas with strong
         currents or fishing harbours. Humans
         and eiders are often attracted to the
         same places. Here a male (foreground)
         and a female eider paddle in front
         of boathouses in Straumen, Nord-
         Trøndelag, Norway. Every morning at
         least one fishing boat leaves here.
