Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. INTRODUCTIONIntroductionUnderstanding The King EiderThe King Eider is one of the most remarkable sea ducks found in the northernmost regions of the world. Living in some of the coldest and harshest environments on Earth, this striking bird has captured the attention of birdwatchers, researc…hers, wildlife photographers, and Arctic communities for generations. With its vivid appearance, powerful survival instincts, and ability to thrive in icy coastal waters where many animals would struggle to survive, the King Eider stands as a symbol of endurance, adaptation, and natural beauty in the Arctic wilderness.The King Eider belongs to the sea duck family and is scientifically known for its close relationship with northern marine ecosystems. Unlike freshwater ducks commonly seen in ponds and rivers, King Eiders are specially adapted to life in coastal Arctic environments where freezing temperatures, strong ocean currents, and seasonal darkness shape every aspect of survival. Their lives are deeply connected to the rhythms of the Arctic Ocean, from migration and feeding to breeding and raising their young in remote tundra landscapes.One of the first things people notice about the King Eider is its extraordinary appearance. The adult male is especially famous for its colorful plumage and unique facial markings. During the breeding season, males display soft blue-gray crowns, pale green cheeks, orange and red beaks, black-and-white feather patterns, and a striking body shape that immediately separates them from most other ducks. Their appearance looks almost artistic, as if designed specifically to stand out against the icy landscapes of the far north. Females, while less colorful, possess beautifully patterned brown feathers that provide important camouflage during nesting season. This natural camouflage allows them to remain hidden from predators while protecting eggs and ducklings in exposed Arctic environments.The King Eider's physical design is not only beautiful but also highly functional. Thick layers of insulating feathers help these birds maintain body heat even while swimming in near-freezing waters. Their compact bodies reduce heat loss, while specialized blood circulation systems help conserve warmth in cold conditions. Their powerful legs and webbed feet allow them to dive efficiently underwater in search of food. Every part of the King Eider's anatomy reflects millions of years of adaptation to extreme northern habitats.King Eiders are found across Arctic regions of North America, Greenland, northern Europe, and parts of Siberia. Their distribution stretches across some of the most remote coastal environments in the world. During breeding season, they travel inland to Arctic tundra areas filled with lakes, wetlands, and open nesting grounds. Once breeding ends, they return to coastal waters where they spend much of their lives feeding and surviving in marine ecosystems. These seasonal movements are part of impressive migration patterns that often cover enormous distances across icy oceans and northern coastlines.The Arctic world where King Eiders live is both beautiful and unforgiving. Temperatures can fall far below freezing, storms can arrive suddenly, and food availability often changes with the seasons. Yet the King Eider has evolved to survive these challenges with remarkable efficiency. They are strong divers capable of reaching underwater prey hidden beneath cold ocean surfaces. Mussels, clams, sea snails, crustaceans, and other marine organisms form much of their diet. Their ability to forage in deep coastal waters allows them to survive in places where fewer competitors exist. This item is printed on demand.

Aggiungi al carrelloThis ornithological print features the Somateria spectabilis, commonly known as the King Eider, from the celebrated "Svenska Fåglar" series. The King Eider, a sea duck known for its striking appearance, is depicted with a remarkable attention to detail and color. The duck's plumage is a study in contrasts: bold black and white f…eathers are complemented by subtle brown patterns, while the bird's head showcases an array of soft grays, greens, and a flush of peach near the nape. The focal point of the illustration is the King Eider's distinctive face, with its bright orange, yellow, and green bill?a defining characteristic of the species. The bird's eyes are rendered with a lifelike glint, and the overall pose conveys a sense of quiet dignity and poise. Set against a muted background that suggests a sandy shore beside a body of water, the King Eider is positioned as if at rest, yet its posture indicates readiness to take to the waters. The print captures the essence of this Arctic dweller, a bird admired for its resilience and beauty. The lithograph's condition seems excellent, with the colors retaining their vibrancy and the paper free of any noticeable signs of age or damage. The print would be a prized possession for bird enthusiasts and art collectors, providing a window into the avian diversity of the Nordic regions as seen through the lens of the early 20th-century artistry. This is an original and NOT a reproduction.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articlesavailable from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Treaty ofHeiligen was signed at Heiligen in 811 between the Danish King Hemmingand Charlemagne. Based on…the terms of the accord, the southern boundaryof Denmark was established at the Eider River. Moreover, the treatyconfirmed the peace established by both signatories in 810.Since thedays of King Offa the Eider river had been the border between thesettlement area of the Angles and Saxons. After Charlemagne hadsubjected the Duchy of Saxony to his rule, Hemming's predecessor anduncle Gudfred took the chance, crossed the Eider and camapaigned thesouthern lands, which Charles had left to the allied Obotrites. The kinghowever was killed by his retinue in 808 and Hemming, to assure his ruleagainst his rivaling cousins, sought peace with the Franks. His and theEmperor's negotiators met on an island of the Eider in present-dayRendsburg and defined the limits of their spheres of influence.
