Thanks so much to Alex for the post about the Red-necked Phalarope.
I have never seen so many birders in the park at one time.
I did manage to take some pictures, but the quality was not too good.
It was a photographers nightmare. Low light conditions because of the
cloudiness and a subject that never stops moving (well almost never, but
of course the very few times the bird ever stopped it was either in a
spot behind something, or when I could not take a shot)
There was also a Least Sandpiper in the park (as Andy mentioned in his
post) I got a couple shots of the Least as well.
Take a look if you are interested:
