Just thought I'd let everyone know that the Red-necked Phalarope has stayed in 
the same spot at Hospital Swamps, near Geelong, despite some heavy rain and 
thunderstorms last week.

Allan Benson and I had good views of the bird late today.  It is still 
associating with Red-necked Stints, and swimming frequently.  The water level 
is a little higher but it remains very easy to access from Lake Road - please 
remember to ask permission from the land owners.  Their interest in the bird 
has grown and they were asking how to see photographs of their "backyard bird" 
on the Internet!
