A Friday visit to Everglades National Park was exciting as well as nostalgic. The early morning arrival was a spectacular lightning display to the east: vintage summer time South Florida. We journeyed to Lucky Hammock and saw at first light about 300 hundred mourning dove, 30 ground dove, hundreds and hundreds of swallows, a white tailed kite, and about 1 million mosquitos. Red-shouldered hawks were on every second telephone poll.
Moving into the Park we were treated to another recent release that will bring joy to the tourists and frustration to the biologists: a peacock!
