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...
This Red-necked Phalarope (Phalaropus lobatus), a kind of shorebird in the sandpiper family, was a welcome visitor to Ashbridge's Bay Park in Toronto on its southward migration. It's rare for this species to stop off in southern Ontario on their migration, let alone in such an easily accessible spot.
A dainty red-necked phalarope was the star bird at Covenham Reservoir at the weekend attracting a steady flow of admirers.

Fetlar, Shetland, Scotland, UK.
Spent a Month in the Northern Isles.
Found a lovely wee (secret) lochan in the hills of Fetlar with 3 pairs. Not a human for miles! Brilliant! Checked them out over a few days on my stay.
Will be returning in 2023. I hope they will also return. Fabulous little birds.
Day 2 - Sandvikur to Herdísarvík. About 10 km south of Hafnir there are some freshwater lakes just to the west of the road. This is where we spent the first night. The bird is a Red Necked Phalarope.
July 1, 2018 - The coastline around the pond Stakholstjorn is a Natural Monument because of the pseudo-craters found there. Skútustaðir Farm is named after a renowned ancient hero called Víga-Skúta, the possessor of the deadly axe Fluga.
The pseudo-craters are formed by steam explosions when burning lava encounters lakes or wetlands. Previous text from tourist information sign located at the site.
