A Lincoln s Sparrow seen in the willow thicket on the south side of the west levee just past the gate and a Clay-colored Sparrow seen along the same levee about seventy-five yards past the filled area were the highlights of a visit to Everglades Holiday Park this morning. There were also a few Cave Swallows among the Northern Rough-winged and Tree Swallows flying over the area. One Marsh Wren was seen and a couple more were heard two or three hundred yards down the levee that branches off to the south from the west levee about a mile out.
