RED PHALAROPE pics from this morning at Balmorhea Lake. Found initially by
Heidi Trudell, I like to think I was slightly distracted driving. :)

This bird was first noticed on the eastern half of the lake, as we were on
the east dam. Easily enjoyed through bins, a scope is great.
After a lunch break in town, we re-located the bird at 1:18 PM on the
western quarter of the lake. Also could be enjoyed through bins during
this observation
NO Surf Scoter was seen. In fact, the raft of scaup, ruddys, and redhead
the scoter sought refuge in was gone as well.
