Message: <blockquote data-quote="MSA" data-source="post: 1669404" data-attributes="member: 24756">Cheers for all opinions so far.My own view is that pic 1 is a Grey Phalarope. However, let's just say that this view is not held by all, and the photographer has stated that all three pics are the same bird! When I was sent pic 3 at work today I thought "wow, this looks rather LTSkua-like!" and it turns out that this was the opinion of the main "objector" to my Grey Phal opinion. Now I've had a chance to look at it again at home on a better monitor, I'm firmly back in the Grey Phal "camp", albeit a poor picture bringing out some odd-looking features (I should just add that the guy also took some very good pics which were featured on the CHOG website).</blockquote>
