Grey Phalarope

[Stan]

A very very rare visitor to the UK, only about 200 birds a year visit and one turned up on Brownsea last week.
He didnt come too close so this is quite a crop

Good capture Stan, talk about right place at the right time, mind you, you do get out and about a lot so well deserved.
