Thanks to Jenny's observation and directions, I was able to see the Wind Point 
red phalarope on Tuesday morning just north of the lighthouse anywhere from 100 
to 300 yards. Though it was usually swimming about 50 yards from shore, it 
occasionally flew and then fed nearly on the beach.  With the strong south 
winds that area of the lake was a bit more tame and I suspect is the reason the 
phalarope was hanging out there.

i All,
I received a call that Rick Fare found a Red Phalarope swimming in the 
ater south of the Wind Point lighthouse in Racine late this afternoon. 
y around 6pm it had moved further south to the Shoop golf course 
arking lot. I arrived home from work too late and don't have any night 
ision birding goggles yet, so didn't try for it. :)
Maybe it will be in the same area tomorrow or will continue heading 
outh. Keep an eye out along the lake in Racine or Kenosha counties, 
erhaps!
