Observation details

Phalarope with thicker bill than that of Red-necked and was yellow at the base. Juvenile. Continuing bird from yesterday. Seen with Andy Guthrie. Around 9 AM, the Sanderlings and phalarope moved to the west corner of the beach - then shortly after that, took off. I had my bins on the phalarope but lost it in the heat shimmer as it flew straight out towards the lake. I don't think it was refound during the day.
