Made a quick run to Wichita Falls from San Antonio to look for both Sabine's 
Gull and Red-necked Phalarope.  Was fortunate to get great looks at both birds 
on 9/21/12.

Arrived south end of Lake Wichita Park at about 7:45 because of  previous post 
by Mike Pease giving that as best location.  Saw the Gull first about 8:15, but 
he flew to the other side of the lake quickly.  About an hour later he returned 
to the south end and this time stayed around.  Saw the Phalaropes at the same 
end at about 10 AM.

Have attached shots.
