No gorget. Pink feet and bill, so I think a true albino, not leucistic.
Robert — yes that was me in the dark gray 4Runner. Looks like if I had been more patient the birds came over closer to the road. Good photos. Both Wilson’s and Red-necked Phalaropes. When I got home and looked at my photos I discovered there had been 2 Wilson’s Phalaropes in with the dowitchers and I didn’t seem the until they flew off. I thought the were Greater Yellowlegs at first but then decided they weren’t so were not on my list When I got home I realized what they were — almost dowitcher sized, white rump area seen while flying, etc.
