Red-necked Phalarope

The Red-necked Phalarope commonly breeds in both the Brooks Range foothills and Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska. In Alaska, this species typically nests in wet tundra near waterâ€™s edge. It differs from the Red Phalarope in that it breeds further inland and at higher elevations (Rubega et al. 2000). Like other phalaropes, this species depends on aquatic food sources for much of its diet (Rubega et al. 2000). Red-necked Phalaropes spend winter at sea in tropical waters in large numbers off the west coast of South America (Rubega et al. 2000). Current North American population estimate is 2.5 million with a declining trend (Morrison et al. 2006).
