Thanks to the post and good directions of Bob Ringler, I was able to find the
RN Phalarope in the east pond of Mason-Dixon farm at 3:50 today, May 20.  He
was on the east side of the pond in the mud and grass.  You really do need a
scope.

It took 30 minutes to find him; for whatever reason all the shorebirds kept
flushing and flying around before alighting at some other location.

Other shorebirds seen were about the same as Bob reported.
