Observation details

I don’t have much experience with this ID so I’d appreciate feedback. Bill seems to thick and short for Red-necked or Wilson’s, plus the back seems very clean and the overall shape feels better for Red. Was flushed by the Peregrine at 9am and we couldn’t relocate. Ethanscellis@gmail.com. I could go either way, but I know the other two phalarope species are much more expected right now. Edit: more opinions have confirmed REPH
