A Wilson's Phalarope (Phalaropus tricolor) doing a little flapping (it didn't actually take off). These little guys are one of the few shorebirds that swim while they're hunting (rather than wading) so they're fairly easy to spot via behavior.

Last one in my American Avocet series (East Pond Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge). The Avocet is now feeding in the middle of the pond, so we can use a low shot for an excellent background.

A series of an American Avocet feeding at the East Pond of Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge. The relatively soft focus is due to heat distortion b/c I'm shooting from just above ground level on a baking mudflat.

A least sandpiper (Calidris minutilla) in loose mud at the East Pond of Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge. In this particular area, the mud is loose enough that even the tiniest birds start to sink and have to use their wings to extract themselves.
