| Occurrence Remarks |
The documentation form by Stephen J. Dinsmore is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: The general body shape and swimming behavior identified the bird as a phalarope. The unstreaked, gray mantle, thicker, bicolored bill, and buffy wash on the underparts eliminates Red-necked and Wilson's phalaropes. | The original documentation form event lasted from 10:38:00/10:52:00 and 10:59:00/11:14:00. |

Viewing Conditions: Viewing conditions were very good. Estimated viewing distance was 50 yards initially and later less than 40 feet. I used a Buschnell 20-45x spotting scope and Bausch & Lomb 7x35 binoculars. |
