Beskrivelse: Every year, during the two first weeks of August, the Sandvika beach in Vardø is the favoured place for young Red-necked Phalaropes. Max number I have registered is 600 birds (allmost all 1st-year birds) around the beach and the nearby breakwater (molo). more photos at:

Thanks for comments!
I have been following Netfugl for a long time. Allways checking in for latest news, id-debates and new photos. Great inspiration. It was about time to join the forum and contribute..

And you couldn't have chosen a more spectacular entry....the composition, the dynamics, the subtle colours and the fact that all seven birds - even the number is significant - attain different positions of wings and legs contribute to the moving impact this magic image has on the viewer.....
Dare I say a once in a lifetime photo?
Many thanks, TORMOD, for a Formidable, dynamic
Gull picture,
demonstrating in a split-second, the ad. Glaucous-w.,
in Norwegian summer, to the left,
- with Dark eye and and Grey on underwing.
Great Compliments ... C.
