Ray Duffy took a photo (above) and some videos of the Red Phalarope seen in the Meadowlands during the World Series of Birding.

It is listed as "rare" on the Birds of the Meadowlands checklist. Did not see it on a lunch-hour visit to Harrier Meadow today…

Thanks, Ray!

NJMC Naturalists Gabrielle Bennett-Meany, Mike Newhouse and Brett Bragin install one of the new Canada Goose exclosures at Anderson Creek Marsh. It's part of a pilot program to see if the exclosures help keep marsh grasses away from hungry geese.
