Another lifer
I was about to leave Koll, when a woman asked me if I'd seen the phalaropes, which I hadn't (ever, really!). She heard from a friend that there were three spotted there. So I headed for the two most likely spots I'd expect shorebirds, and was pleased to find them in the second place. They were fairly far out, then flew up the shore a ways. I went over to Greenway park to get a closer look, and was rewarded with three separate passes by them as they'd work that shoreline, then fly back and do it again!
