Observation details
I observe a synergistic foraging activity, The 5 phalaropes stayed continuously together with the mallards who were head down dabbling and stirring up the bottom. The phalaropes were benefiting from the ducks having strutted up the bottom and they were feeding on forage probably not of interest to the ducks but a free meal ticket for the phalaropes
