Gorgeous Phalaropes


30:th of May 2010
Today we spend most of the day on the high-plateau Flatruet in Härjedalen, watching birds in increasingly good, sunny weather with only mild winds. The first Long-tailed Skua, Willow Grouse, Merlin, several handsome, singing Lapland Buntings and Bluethroats, plenty of Waders singing and displaying are among the good birds we note. The bird of the day is voted the Red-necked Phalaropes. A pair gave us real quality time down to less than one meter´s distance. Religious!
