 Wilson’s Phalarope, Oak Hammock Marsh, Winnipeg, MB This was taken last year while I was visiting a friend in the Winnipeg area and after returning from Churchill. On the way to visit our friend, Juli Wilcox and I stopped by Oak Hammock for the first time on this overcast day and immediately noticed this breeding plumage female feeding on bugs among the flowers. I used the visitor’s center sign as a blind to sneak up on the bird. Once there for a moment I was able to slowly move away from the sign. Staying low with my tripod placed in front of me, I worked my way closer without disturbance to the bird's activity. When I was finished I retreated in the same manner and left the bird undisturbed as it continued to go about feeding. Since it was cloudy bright I needed flash to bring the colors up and provide a catchlight. EOS 1D, EF 600/4 IS, 1.4TC, 1/400 @ F 7.1, ISO 320, fill at -1.3, one distracting bright yellow flower was cloned from the upper left. Greg Downing
