Grey Phalarope, Rough Point, 14th October 2019 (Michael O'Clery).
This bird was feeding in the surf just off the headland, in a modest NW breeze. Most are seen in strong NW gales off headlands like Brandon Point so, like the Sabine's Gull a couple of weeks back (see below), it was great to enjoy one that didn't seem to be in any great hurry.
