Reference Wikipedia- When feeding, a Red-necked Phalarope will often swim in a small, rapid circle, forming a small whirlpool. This behaviour is thought to aid feeding by raising food from the bottom of shallow water. The bird will reach into the center of the vortex with its bill, plucking small insects or crustaceans caught up therein.

Amazing moment and we capture it throughout but sorry, no video and only this picture . xlolx

Couldn't choose 'the best' so here are all the photo's of Red-necked Phlaropes feeding at the water's edge on The Wick of With; Fetlar. They were completely unconcerned and slowly swam nearer and nearer and nearer...

Fairly certain that this phalarope is Red-necked Phalarope. Photographed at the Tijuana River Estuary National Wildlife Refuge.

There were literally hundreds of Red-necked Phalarope (Phalaropus lobatus) during our 4 hour whale watching tour with Sea Wolf II, Monterey, California, USA, July 2013. Lots of them rested or feeding at sea far from shore

Saw at farmlands.

Got a video as well.

A first for me. Thanks to Bob van Essen for the directions.

These were cropped a bit more than I would have liked, but they turned out OK.
