I have processed some photos of the Red Phalarope which are included in a blog post ( http://birdingdude.blogspot.com/2015/07/shorebirds-are-shiznit.html). The post also includes a link to my flickr page with enlarged images.
One note on this bird that no one has yet to mention. This bird has a defect left leg from what appears to be a healed injury. I noticed today that she seemed to push off from her right side before taking flight and seemed to land funny; I mentioned the possible injury to Bobby Kurtz and Sam Janazzo but did not confirm the leg issue in the field until cycling through my photos later at home. A really gorgeous bird that was a delight to observe! Many thanks to Bob Anderson for the find and to Robert Proniewych and others who were quick to spread the word.
