There were some Red-necked Pharalopes around yesterday: 7 at Yakumo and 3 at Oshamanbe.
They were a variety of ages and plumages…………..
Must have been rough out at sea for them…………
Other waders around included small flocks of Red-necked Stints, 5 Sanderling, 2 Terek Sandpiper, 1 Kentish Plover, 2 or 3 Mongolian Plover and 1 Great Knot.
Much better images of Phalaropes since our challenging views in July…not a lifer for us as had previously seen in Iceland. Well done for surviving the Japan heatwave.
It’s not over yet……………..according to the weather forecast anyway.
