After dropping a friend off at Ft. Lauderdale Airport early this morning, I swung by this bustling park just off I-95 in Broward. This park gets very busy, but the high number of passerines didn't seem to mind the throngs of joggers, cyclists, and speed walkers that like to have very loud speaker phone conversations.

The main parking lot on the west side of the road hosts a number of Blue-crowned Parakeets as the morning moves along.
