The Red-legged Honeycreeper is still in Garden Key in Dry Tortugas, still in the parade grounds, still going from seagrape trees to flowering geiger trees.
The Black Noddy and the White-tipped Dove have been seen every day since I arrived 4/30/03.
An Elegant Tern was seen - not by me though I tried - on the dock at Loggerhead yesterday.
I saw the Slaty-backed Gull (finally) in the Publix parking lot on 4/29/03.
Today is my last day at the Tortugas. I bid the Honeycreeper farewell.
