1. red phalarope

   The red phalarope, also known as the grey phalarope or Phalaropus fulicarius, is a small migratory bird that belongs to the sandpiper family. Characterized by a distinctive thick, short, yellow bill and red-orange plumage during the breeding season, these birds are unusual in that the females are more brightly coloured than the males. They spend most of their lives at sea and only come to land to breed in the Arctic regions. They feed primarily on small aquatic invertebrates.

1. Red Phalarope

   The Red Phalarope, Phalaropus fulicarius, is a small wader. This phalarope breeds in the Arctic regions of North America and Eurasia. It is migratory, and, unusually for a wader, migrating mainly on oceanic routes and wintering at sea on tropical oceans. Red Phalarope is about 21 cm in length, with lobed toes and a straight bill, somewhat thicker than that of Red-necked Phalarope. The breeding female is predominantly dark brown and black above, with red underparts and white cheek patches. The bill is yellow, tipped black. The breeding male is a duller version of the female. Young birds are light grey and brown above, with buff underparts and a dark patch through the eye. In winter, the plumage is essentially grey above and white below, but the black eyepatch is always present. The bill is black in winter. Their call is a short beek. The typical avian sex roles are reversed in the three phalarope species. Females are larger and more brightly coloured than males. The females pursue males, compete for nesting territory, and will aggressively defend their nests and chosen mates. Once the females lay their olive-brown eggs, they begin their southward migration, leaving the males to incubate the eggs and care for the young. Three to six eggs are laid in a ground nest near water. The young mainly feed themselves and are able to fly within 18 days of birth.
