Grey Phalarope (Phalaropus fullicarius)

This bird has been on a pond in Hampton Court park for about a week although ive seen several of these lovely little birds never so close as this chap down to as close as 5-6 feet to close to focus. You cant believe how active they are untill you try to photograph one in poor light, apart from slight colour in the bill this could be a B/W photo.
