What is this? a bee? he/she approached my aluminium door and after a slight struggle vanished through a gap into the door ! Nest building? Or is it food?

@cornishbird.bsky.social l believe that this our Cornish born Eider, feeding away from the gang. I don't think it would be easy to pick him out otherwise.

Moult now underway, only one male still in breeding plumage.

It is following me around it seems, Spit this morning and Par beach pool this evening.

Little beauty!
