Males 1959 Lobipes lobatus May 27 Tom reported a pair seen today. June 15 Two northern phalaropes on river this morning. June 28 A pair, male & female, were swimming about on one lake on Eside spring. Both seemed anxious when I approached but didn't fly, simply swam further out. June 25 On a pond upstream from stream of the large willow we saw 10 N. phalaropes. Much calling, flitting about. I got the impression that active pairing was underway. [illegible] both saw 2 separate ones on the creek itself. Aug 3 Saw one phalarope around small pond along Leon Slough. First one I've seen here since above. Lobipes lobatus is now Phalaropus lobatus per AOU 1998
