News about the Brileider in care

The Spectacled Eider that had been seen this winter and last off the island of Texel, Holland. / Netherlands was taken into care after being found exhausted and seriously underweight sat on the rocks. The latest news from Ecomare is encouraging as the bird had been feeding independently and gained weight (now weighting over 1kg, after gaining 200 grams, but is still not out of intensive care. Lets hope this wonderful bird continues its recovery and is able to be realised back into the wild once it has fully recovered.
