Started out this morning in Indian Hammock Park. Overall kind of quiet but did see the following:
Cardinal (lots)
Blackpoll Warbler (I had never seen so many)
Cape-May Warbler (pretty numerous also)
Cattle Egret
White Ibis
Blue Jay
Mockingbird

Decided to head out to the Private Conservation Area at Miami-Dade College in Kendall (I know the groundskeeper) and had more success. Saw the following:

Green Heron
Coot
Red-Shouldered Hawk (juvenile)
Red-Bellied Woodpecker
Cardinals (Plenty. A pair was feeding a juvenile, little brown thing with no tail and a spiky crest)
Spot-Breasted Oriole (a pair)
Purple Martin
Chimney Swift
Fish Crow
Blue Jay
Catbirds (many)
Mockingbird
Blackpoll Warbler (plentiful)
Cape-May Warblers (the most common one there)
Worm-Eating Warbler (my 2nd one ever)
Common Yellothroat
Redstart
And to top it all, a lifer, the Black-Whiskered Vireo, Got clear looks at its whisker markings
