Betsy and I went to Ellicott Road last evening after dinner in the hopes of refinding the juvenile WILSON'S PHALAROPE discovered by Joel Strong earlier in the day. Like TJ Mudd (see note below), we did not see it for the first 45 minutes. Then I found it inside of the long marsh vegetation into which it shortly completely disappeared, so it sure can hide! Eventually it came out into the open. We also had the STILT SANDPIPER and a WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER. There were also a few BOBOLINKS among a large flock of Red-wingeds, Starlings, and Grackles. Here is my eBird list: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S38450464
Good birding!
