This Red-necked Pharalope was a nice find in the same place I saw the Black-winged Stilts last week. The light was harsh and I was handholding at 700mm: I was a bit disappointed with the soft pics when I got home. They seemed much better when I was checking them on the back of the camera…
Excellent photos soft or not! Speed just the one lone Phalarope on a shallow salt pan off the Black Sea coast and demonstrating its feeding habit of continuous circling. I think nifty footwork to dislodge food and then collect in a continuous motion.
We saw several when you visited a few summers ago….
We’ve had a good spring for them here – nice birds !
Grand total of 1 for me!
