Subject: [MDBirding] Two Red Phalaropes at Conowingo


Thanks to all for the fabulous directions!

As Rick Borchelt and I arrived at the debris field, two Snow Buntings flushed and flew upriver. Not long after, we were on the phalaropes -- after we were able to separate them from all the milk jugs... We found two at the far edge of the debris. Now waiting to see if they'll get any closer.

Also present -- a good number of Bonaparte's Gulls.
