phalaropus
Phalaropus is a genus of small wading birds which are part of the sandpiper family, found across North America and parts of Eurasia. These birds have unique characteristics such as lobed toes and a thin, straight bill. They are known for their distinctive feeding style, often swimming in tight circles to stir up food from the bottom of bodies of water. Examples include the red-necked phalarope and the northern phalarope.
