Not a good photo I'm afraid as it was a long way out on the mud this morning in poor light (as usual). If this is a Pharalope then it is the first time I've seen one feeding in mud . Neil. Mai Po Nature Reserve, Hong Kong, China. 08/06/06 Olympus 7070wz plus Swarovski STS80HD scope and Sw 30x eyepiece

HI Neil With that plumage yu have no choice - it can onlybe a Red-necked Phalarope. It is unusual to see them feeding out of water, but not unprecedented. Cheers Mike K
