Amherst Island - A few pairs breed on the island. This male fed fairly close to the trail I was on.

Ahmad Shah: Fantastic capture, lovely habitat.
BrianMorin: Sometimes everything comes together. I saw this shot before it happened. I watched the bird moving about and hoped it would approach this tiny bit of water which had a great sky reflection. It did briefly and I made sure I took advantage of the opportunity. The low, tight vegetation that went right into the water made this look like a lush salad. It was a perfect setting.

Amherst Island - Plumage reversal for phalaropes. The female is the more colourful one (R). She also leaves the job of nest sitting to the male and may have multiple suitors, laying eggs in several nests.
