Merry Christmas all.
This morning I had a brief encounter with a Red Phalarope on Eld Inlet, near
Cooper Point inThurston County. The bird dropped onto the water briefly
under windy (SW) conditions, then continued down the inlet. Recent storms
offshore have generated a number of reports from Oregon, including a couple
inland in the Portland area. Now appears to be a darn good time to look for
this species. Good Luck...
