What are some examples of Eskers?
An esker is a type of hill made up of glacial debris (sort of a moraine). They are generally found in areas that have had continental glaciation (past ice ages) and differ from the moraines seen at the edges of glacier ice sheet in that they are elongated in the direction of ice sheet flow. Esker is from old Irish meaning "ridge". A esker is commonly long and sinuous. see : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esker

How can an esker be quickly differentiated from a moraine by its sediment?
Since the esker was deposited in a flowing water regime, I would not expect to find many fine clays there. And I would not expect to find any large boulders, >1m in an esker. The moraine on the other hand will have parts that have been formed by rocks grinding each other in a comparatively waterless regime. So it will have lots of fine clays. Boulders >>1m could even be a feature of a moraine.
