Kara Carragher and I discovered a breeding plumage female RED PHALAROPE late this afternoon at Big Johnson Reservoir in El Paso County, swimming in the middle of the lake. We saw it from the dirt parking lot to the west of the regular paved parking lot. Several other birders were able to see the bird, and luckily Luke P and Brian G were there and were able to get photos and video through their scopes. This is the first breeding plumaged Red Phalarope I have seen in Colorado.
