On the way home from work this evening, I stopped for a little while to
check out the Myrick Marsh.  The highlight of the stop was seeing 5
Wilson's Phalaropes (including 4 females).  I saw the birds from the T
in the trail just west of the two floating observation docks.  I was
scanning to the northeast and the birds were in the muddy area in front
of a line of last year's cattails along the railroad tracks.  They were
a long way out, but still very easy to recognize through a scope.
 

Good birding,
