Were the Crested Caracaras actually seen on the Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary property? If so, that's a remarkable sighting for that site. In over 13 years of birding that place in all months, I have never seen Crested Caracara there. Also, I don't know if it's "official" yet, but you may wish to consider that the caracaras you saw in Costa Rica are a different species or at least subspecies/race than the ones we get here in Florida. "Northern Crested Caracara" (Caracara cheriway) vs. "Southern Crested Caracara" (Caracara plancus).
