Phalarope and Shrike - Jonathan Lautenbach

.
Today (Saturday, Oct. 23) while conducting a lakewatch from the White Lake Channel, Neil Gilbert, my brother Michael, and I found this Red Phalarope (3 photos below) swimming in the channel about 10 feet off the pier.  When we left the area at around 11:00 a.m., the bird was NOT present.

At Muskegon Wastewater we had a Northern Shrike on the south side of Swanson Road.
