The sketchy description did not say anything diagnostic about the plumage, and the identification was based entirely on this phalarope's smaller size in comparison with adjacent Pectoral Sandpipers. However, since Wilson's Phalarope can also be smaller than a Pectoral , it was felt the bird was more likely a Wilson's , which is much more likely in April than a Rednecked . 123	Accepted
