Observation details
Continuing bird first seen this AM by Jeff Patterson. Seen at third drying basin feeding with one Wilson’s Phalarope, which provided excellent size comparison, and many Stilt and Least Sandpipers. Smaller size than Wilson’s Phalarope; thin sharp black bill, hint of rufous wash on shaded neck, black ear patch, black cap, dark, slightly streaky wings, pale breast and underparts with some flecking/streaking on sides. Young bird. Beautiful subtle coloration. Photo to follow.
