An 8 km march with 500mm f4 and tripod up and down the south jetty yielded nothing much but having been at the treatment ponds briefly the day before (after asking for a couple hours off work to look for the Northern Wheatear found late Wednesday afternoon) knew that a couple of phalarope were out and about and decided to shoot these guys as a way to relax after the walk
At the water treatment ponds it can be difficult to get close due to vegetation along the waters edge, frustrating at times.
I set my tripod down really low and kind of sat on top of some matted down vegetation next to the pathway to get a better angle and this worked much better than shooting down on them.
