Following up on Ben's report of two phalaropes at Pickerington Ponds in Franklin Co. Rob Lowry and his wife and Dan Sanders and I observed two Red-necked Phalaropes. We walked to Pintail Lake from the ranger station (the old house). The birds were observed from the platform. They were close to the near shore.
