[Birdtalk] Phalaropes have arrived

[John CAVITT]

The current storm coming in from the north brought at least 3 flocks over my house in Hooper!  I estimate the largest at around 300 birds.  The other two were smaller ~100.  The heavy rain forced them to land in an alfalfa field across the road.

The shorebird migration has returned again to GSL!
