Title: King Eider female duck

I photographed a King Eider female duck at Bowmanville harbour on Tuesday. She was there briefly and left very quickly. I would have added a couple of pictures but I am new to the site and haven't figured out how to add them.

Have a look at this thread (http://outdoorontario.net/birds/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=165) in the "Board Related Issues" section.

In a nutshell, you have to post the photo to the web somewhere and link to it.  There's a photo gallery on this site, or you can use Flickr or any of the dozens of other photo sharing sites.

To link an image, you need its URL.  The quick way to get it (versus the whole page), is to right click on it and select "properties".  Copy the address.  When you are composing your message, click on the "Img" button just below the subject line, paste the address, and then click the "Img" button again (it will appear as "Img*" the second time).

To make sure you've done it right, click "Preview" before "Submit".
