Dotterel, Charadrius morinellus, a colourful and enigmatic high-mountain tundra bird. The female lays her eggs and then leaves on vacation far south, whilst the male broods the eggs and raises the chicks. Therefore she is the most glamourus-looking one and he is the camouflage-coloured one. Flatruet, Ljungdalsfjällen, Härjedalen, Sweden
