Observation details

All by itself on the beach, Kept flying into the water and then flying off when a wave came in. Obvious phalarope, but I didn't realize it was a red one until I looked at the (poor) photos I got of it. Gray back with no splotching, thicker bill than my local red-necked phalaropes.
