Jim from Georgia and I saw the adult Western Spindalis at about 7:30 this morning as well as an immature male. The birds were seen together on the west side of the road next to the Long Pine Key nature trail just north of the residence building. Four birders from Tennessee arrived later, I hope they had luck finding the birds.

At the Annex south of Lucky Hammock, we had good views of a calling Alder Flycatcher as well seeing two others. In Key Largo we saw and heard an Alder Flycatcher in Gulfstream Estates. The bird was seen at the end of Gulfstream Road just beyond a cable across a dirt road. Gulfstream Estates is located along 905 road in North Key Largo. We also had a light morph Short-tailed Hawk, White-crowned Pigeon as well as a few common warbler species.
