Steve Ritt of North Carolina/California joined me this morning for some suburban birding in northern Miami. We had originally planned on meeting at sunrise for Spot-breasted Oriole, but Steve found himself acquainted with Miami traffic en route. We would get a late start and miss the oriole as a result, but a Nashville Warbler was a welcome substitute.
The Nashville was in a well-rounded feeding flock between Griffing Blvd and NE 5th Avenue on NE 119th street.
