Afterwards headed to Castellow Hammock. The Center was busy with Starlings, House Sparrows, Cardinals, Catbirds, Mockingbird, RT Hummingbirds, Common Grackles, Mourning and White-winged Doves. The hammock was pretty quiet and had Cardinals, Catbird, a singing Blue-headed Vireo and a Great-crested Flycatcher.
