A Red Phalarope was found by my team on the Brooklyn (Kings County) CBC. Location is behind the Fairway market in Red Hook, at the end of Van Brundt street. The bird was in the section of water bounded by the artist's warehouses on the left and the water taxi pier on the right (across from the rusted out trolley cars.) It was swimming back and forth quite close to the wall alongside the artist's warehouse, actively feeding and preening at times. See around 2 p.m. A photo is on my Facebook page here: _http://tinyurl.com/6n5as4s_ (http://tinyurl.com/6n5as4s) This is the first record for a Kings County CBC.
