All,
The Red Phalarope continues at Union Res this morning. It is hanging by itself
in the middle of the res towards the north side. The heat shimmer is making it
near impossible to get decent photos. A scope is required to be able to see
the important field marks. Best views are from the c
We are looking at the Red Phalarope from the South shore. It is at the
Northwest corner of Union Reservoir.
Thanks for posting it on CO Birds -- John and Nick.

I found a Red Phalarope today on the south end of Adobe Creek Reservoir
(Blue Lake) in Bent County, CO. It was loosely associating with a
Red-necked Phalarope. From Road 10, accessed by State Highway 194 just
northwest of Las Animas, go north about 10 miles to Road UU. Turn west

Cobirders,
This afternoon I found a couple of phalaropes at Lagerman, one Red-necked and
the other looking a lot like a Red.
Side by side comparisons were especially useful in analyzing the markings to
support the ID of the Red Phalarope, as were discussions with friends and
fellow birders.
For all the folks that were able to see the suspected Red Phalarope I would
love your thoughts on how you came to your ID. I have reviewed multiple
pictures and have a hard time making an ID one way or the other.
The bill at a distance certainly appears somewhat thicker, but not conclusively

On the evening of Sept. 27th Carolyn and I found a Red Phalarope on McPhee
Reservoir (Montezuma County). We were out messing around in a boat, luckily
had binos, but no camera. The site was walking distance, 1/2-3/4 mile to NW
across mudflats, from McPhee marina. On the morning of the 28th, Erik
Bill Maynard and I found Chico Basin Ranch's first RED PHALAROPE on a stock
tank pond in El Paso County. We also saw a Philadelphia Vireo at Bell
Grove in El Paso County willows, same bird banded a few days ago.

An immature RED PHALAROPE was at Lagerman this morning. Still present around

The Red Phalarope found by John was still present at 8 a.m. today. Also
present were 4 LB Dowitchers and 1 Ibis. The ibis was on the east side of

It amazed me that the birds weren't bothered by the tremendous amount of
