[cobirds] King Eiders/Wyoming-Yes

The King Eiders are present this morning. Maybe 20% of the lake is frozen. Here are the directions for finding them on Lake Hattie: view them from the spit in the middle of the lake (41.23842° N, 105.93301° W), they are more easily visible from the westernmost access point on the south side of the lake at the end of County Road 45 (41.23557° N, 105.94265° W). There's another public overlook between these two that might be worth checking as well: 41.23619° N, 105.93934° W. All three of these spots seem a bit sketchy access-wise if you've never been there before, but they're all public property.
