Red-necked Phalarope
Demonstrating their needle-sharp bills (which is a distinguishing feature from the Red Phalarope) and the black and white "flash pattern" that is so useful in disorienting raptors - the so called flock flee flash ;-)
Despite the fact that the wings are almost perpendicular to the water, its head is pilot-quality straight and level.
