John, the phalarope is a great find -- definitely a RED PHALAROPE. The bird you found looks very much like the bird at Barr Lake Monday evening (the same bird?), which I was second guessing yesterday after finding a Red-Necked Phalarope in the same area. Gray and black stripes could be seen at a distance through a scope. Curiously, the gray and black striping seems atypical of Red Phalarope photos I've seen elsewhere.
